Developed over seven years by Professor ’s research team, the BeaconAI Quant System is widely regarded as a “trading brain” at the forefront of quantitative finance. The system integrates DeepSeek’s deep-sensing technology, GPT-4’s natural language understanding, and DeepMind’s reinforcement learning algorithms. Since its initial release, BeaconAI has undergone seven major version upgrades, continuously enhancing its modules for signal generation, strategy integration, risk management, and explainability.
Key Architectural Layers
Data-Sensing Layer
Covers global markets by processing structured data—including tick-by-tick transactions and Level-2 price feeds—alongside vast streams of unstructured text sources such as news articles, corporate announcements, and social media sentiment.
Signal-Decision Layer
Employs a multi-model ensemble framework to accurately identify trend-following, mean-reversion, and arbitrage trading signals.
Strategy-Execution Layer
Integrates multiple algorithmic execution strategies including TWAP, VWAP, and iceberg orders, with built-in automated liquidity detection.
Advisory Layer
Powered by Explainable AI (XAI) interfaces, this layer visualizes factor weights and decision paths behind each trading signal, offering full transparency throughout the decision-making process.
