Abstract
In this paper, we combine the theory of stochastic process and techniques of machine learning with the regression analysis, first proposed by Longstaff and Schwartz 2001 and apply the new methodologies on financial derivatives pricing. Rigorous convergence proofs are provided for some of the methods we propose. Numerical examples show good applicability of the algorithms.
