Abstract
[en] This master thesis deals with portfolio optimisation under prospect theory, which aims to better reflect reality in terms of purchasing behaviour than modern utility theory. 3 optimisation algorithms are implemented in this work, namely the genetic algorithm, the simulated annealing algorithm and the ant colony algorithm. Their performances are evaluated and compared on several criteria, and in several datasets (CAC40, S&P500 and Nasdaq).
