Abstract
This thesis explores advanced optimization modeling techniques withapplications in three key areas of sustainable finance: dynamic portfolio construction through market state classification, pair trading strategies in financial markets, and carbon dioxide emission modeling. We develop a clustering algorithm for Bayesian Markov Switching Models to classify markets into volatility-based states, optimizing asset allocation strategies by identifying distinct market regimes. Additionally, we performed mixing time and convergence analysis to assess the efficiency and stability of the model. This approach incorporates equal-weighted investment, minimum variance, maximum diversification, and equal risk contribution strategies, demonstrating superior risk-adjusted returns compared to static strategies. We also introduce a Multi-modal Temporal Relation Graph Learning (MTRGL) framework, which integrates time-series and categorical data through a dynamic graph and memory-enhanced dynamic graph neural network to identify time-dependent correlations among financial instruments. This method reframes pair trading as a temporal graph link prediction problem, outperforming traditional methods in empirical tests. Furthermore, we conducted a convergence analysis of the MTRGL framework, evaluating the model’s convergence rate and complexity to ensure efficient and stable solutions. Finally, we propose an optimization framework that combines Support Vector Machine (SVM) regression and Principal Component Regression (PCR) to analyze socioeconomic and environmental factors affecting carbon dioxide emissions, refining emission models and informing sustainability policies. Our findings highlight the effectiveness of these optimization techniques in forecasting carbon dioxide emissions, enhancing pair trading reliability, and optimizing investment strategies, thereby contributing to advancements in both environmental and quantitative finance.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; both teacher heads agree on what is shown here.
