Abstract: This paper demonstrates how the two types of FLANN models (Functional link artificial neural network models) i.e. Chebyshev-FLANN (CFLANN) and Trigonometric-FLANN (TFLANN) are trained using Jaya algorithm to predict the Stock Market Indices. The intention of the current paper is putting forward a contrast between popular training algorithms such as Back Propagation (BP) and Jaya algorithm. The BP and Jaya algorithm trained FLANN models are examined for predicting stock indices for a day and a week ahead. The stock indices BSE500, DJIA and NASDAQ with few technical indicators are taken as inputs in this experimental time series data. The study confirms the superiority of Jaya algorithm trained FLANN models to the traditional BP trained FLANN models. The Mean Square Error (MSE) and Mean Absolute Percentage Error (MAPE) are used for performance evaluation. The simulation study is done using python3 in Anaconda environment.
