abstract = {We present methods for an autonomous agent to identify
dominant market conditions, such as over-supply or scarcity, and to
forecast market changes. We show that market conditions can be
characterized by distinguishable statistical patterns that can be
learned from historic data and used, together with real-time
observable information, to identify the current market regime and to
forecast market changes. We use a Gaussian Mixture Model to represent
the probabilities of market prices and, by clustering these
probabilities, we identify different economic regimes. We show that
the regimes so identified have properties that correlate with market
factors that are not directly observable. We then present methods to
predict regime changes. We validate our methods by presenting
experimental results obtained with data from the Trading Agent
Competition for Supply Chain Management.},
