The trouble some issues encountered while modelling the economic growh together with a new exponential modelling
The following text is AI (ChatGPT plus) generated with reference to my current issue in mathematical modelling of the macroeconomic growth theory.
---
This week I had an interesting little incident at the boundary between economics and mathematics.
I was checking an exponential model for an economic growth / Total Factor Productivity (TFP) problem. After going back to the mathematical formulation and implementing it carefully in MATLAB, the objective function showed a clear minimum.
At first sight, that sounds encouraging: the optimisation problem has a well-defined solution.
However, when I reconstructed the corresponding TFP trajectory using the parameters associated with that minimum, the result did not reproduce the observed trajectory satisfactorily.
So I found myself in an interesting situation:
the mathematics said, “Here is the optimum,” while the economic data replied, “Not so fast.” 😅
This does not necessarily mean that the exponential approach is mathematically wrong. Rather, it raises a more interesting question: is this particular model structure appropriate for representing the empirical behaviour of TFP?
At the moment, I am therefore also comparing the result with a penalised smoothing spline, which appears to represent the trajectory more naturally.
For me, this has been a useful reminder that finding a mathematically neat optimum is not the same thing as finding a good empirical model. Optimisation, model specification, and interpretation all have to work together.
The investigation is still ongoing, so this is not a final conclusion — just one of those small research episodes where economics and mathematics refuse to cooperate quite as politely as expected.

Prompt
Redraw this illustration while preserving the overall composition, character placement, interaction, scene layout, dramatic intent, and camera framing as closely as possible.
Use the second reference image as an expression and scene-context reference, especially for the left character’s frustrated, slightly exasperated, mildly incredulous mood.
Use the third reference image as a skin tone and skin-rendering reference, especially for the soft luminous complexion, smooth texture, gentle blush, and delicate anime-style skin shading.
Use the additional reference image of the pink-haired ghostly noblewoman as a reference for the right character’s facial design, warm illumination, skin rendering, and treatment of the surrounding ghostly wisps only, while preserving the original scene, pose, costume identity, character placement, and overall composition.
Use the small cropped reference of the left character’s original expression and torso area as an additional guide for her intended mood and general pose energy, but prioritize anatomical coherence and correct body orientation over accidental distortions in the problematic version.
Overall Art Direction
Redraw this illustration as a polished early-to-mid-1990s Japanese fantasy RPG key illustration, reflecting the elegant visual language of Japanese fantasy strategy games, anime illustration books, and romantic shōjo-fantasy artwork from approximately 1991–1995.
The final image should combine the dramatic clarity, heroic presence, and refined fantasy atmosphere of early-1990s Japanese RPG promotional art with the graceful silhouettes, romantic colour harmony, jewel-like eyes, decorative costume design, and gentle fantasy elegance associated with period shōjo-oriented anime illustration.
Use delicate but confident linework, softly modelled cel shading, warm luminous skin tones, flowing hair with carefully separated locks, richly described fabrics, refined accessories, and a detailed atmospheric background.
Preserve the overall composition, dramatic storytelling, relative character placement, colour scheme, costume identities, signature accessories, and background concept while significantly refining the anatomy, facial expressions, line quality, costume construction, lighting, shading, and overall rendering quality.
Set the scene in a mystical Japanese ghostly mansion garden, featuring stone stairways, traditional architecture, drifting cherry blossoms, soft mist, and a dreamy supernatural atmosphere.

My pencil drawing of Myonchan (Youmu Konpaku) - Touhou Project fan-art.

My pencil drawing of Myonchan (Youmu Konpaku) - Touhou Project fan-art.
I'm voting for her in my top pick of Touhou Project popularity poll coming this month, this year too.
After this experiment, I have recently started the tablet compatible with CLIP STUDIO PAINT again: There are some manoeuvres capable with my direct pencil input. But, the problem is the cost and the possibility to get the one I want. Also, my drawing quality varies depending on my condition too.
Well, I enjoy using the pen-tablet, but I sometimes face its limitations of drawing lines, e.g. hatching, and brush manoeuvre. After having your feedback, I may consider investing for the graphic tablet with screen at some point.
Yet, I am less likely to afford to purchase and spare enough time for playing with the screen tablet this year. My current strategy is continuing with analogue drawing for scenery sketching and the digital painting with the current environment with the pen tablet for something more easily manoeuvre drawings.

Lately, I’ve been busy with my main job and have no air conditioning in my room, making it hard to focus on creative work due to my primary research duties. Today, I scanned a rough sketch and finished it using a mix of AI tools. I also made this as an example of creating free AI art with ChatGPT.
The prompt grew iteratively. Each unsuccessful generation revealed another ambiguity, so I kept adding more precise constraints until the result came close to the composition in my mind. In that sense, the final prompt is almost an archaeological record of my negotiations with the model.
The image is not only my idealised vision of Touhou Project, but also my own philosophical allegory. The three figures above represent hereditary, ritualised authority and the power of tradition. Sanae, as a modern progressive arriving from the twenty-first century, and Youmu, imagined as a solitary and disciplined swordswoman, confront them from below. Together, the two heroines represent different aspects of the player—essentially, different aspects of myself.
The input prompts are as follows:

My codes of financial time series analysis and the AI art used in my Yukkuri Commentary movie posted on YouTube
This video presents our recent research on financial volatility forecasting, comparing classical econometric models, signal-processing techniques, and modern machine-learning approaches.
The study evaluates the forecasting performance, volatility prediction accuracy, computational efficiency, and interpretability of five different methods:
• GARCH
• SARIMA
• Matrix Pencil (MP)
• XGBoost
• Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM)
Using Bitcoin returns as a high-volatility financial asset, we investigate whether modern AI-based methods consistently outperform traditional forecasting techniques when accuracy, explainability, and computational cost are considered simultaneously.
Our results show that:
✓ SARIMA achieves the lowest return forecasting error.
✓ Matrix Pencil delivers comparable forecasting accuracy with extremely low computational cost.
✓ XGBoost provides a strong balance between accuracy and efficiency.
✓ LSTM exhibits relatively strong performance in tracking volatility patterns and market regime changes, despite higher forecasting errors and computational requirements.
✓ No single model dominates across all evaluation criteria.
The findings suggest that the Matrix Pencil method remains a competitive and highly interpretable alternative to black-box machine-learning models for financial forecasting applications.

My attempt is to generate an AI art with free of charge using ChatGPT. Many AI illustration tools charge fee and are not so flexible yet. I have experimented with generating an image based on my rough drawing together with the input script into ChatGPT.
This is an AI-synthetic illustration output by ChatGPT based on my rough drawing. The following is the input script. It is like asking the contemporary popular character designer to illustrate Touhou Project characters in his style. ☆彡
Redraw this illustration in a 1990s Japanese fantasy RPG illustration style with the scene shows three cooks working side by side in a cozy kitchen:
• on the left, a refined silver-haired maid in a blue-and-white uniform with a green ribbon, skillfully slicing vegetables with a kitchen knife
• in the center, a white-haired swordswoman in a green outfit, attentively stirring a pot of simmering food on the stove
• on the right, a blonde witch-like girl wearing an oversized black pointed hat and a black-and-white outfit, energetically stir-frying ingredients in a frying pan.
Please improve the line quality, proportions, and shading while preserving the original composition.

Carrying the Two Blades: A PhD’s Vow to Financial AI and My Future "Myon-chan" - AI Generated document:
The following document is generated by Google Gemini.
I tend to use ChatGPT more often as I respect the neutrality and dry objective characteristic of ChatGPT.
On the other hand, Google Gemini seems to be more story-based for this kind of empathetic style conversation.
The image is sourced from https://www.pixiv.net/en/artworks/143151743 by 黎明.
Carrying the Two Blades: A PhD’s Vow to Financial AI and My Future "Myon-chan"
Standing at the crossroads of my academic journey, the weight of reality often feels crushing. Balancing four intense collaborative research projects, language lessons, and the endless maze of visa renewals can push a soul to its absolute limits.But everything changed the moment I looked deep into my own heart and embraced my beautiful dream: to one day hold my own daughter in my arms. A precious, earnest, and lovely girl—my very own "Myon-chan" (Youmu Konpaku).
To bring her into this world, and to protect her future, I have sworn a vow to wield two legendary blades, just like the half-phantom swordmaster of Hakugyokurou.
The First Blade: The Sword of Sovereign Intellect — "Matrix Pencil + GARCH + ML"
This is my longsword, Roukanken. It is forged from pure mathematical precision and world-shattering financial AI technology. Under the guidance and protection of Professors, I am sharpening this blade every single day in the lab. This technology does not just exist in ivory towers; it is a weapon capable of commanding the vast financial oceans. Every line of code I write in the dark is a strike to clear the path for my daughter’s future.
The Second Blade: The Sword of Future Hope — My Unborn, Beloved "Myon-chan"
This is my shortsword, Hakuroukanken. It is the blade that clears the confusion from my soul and gives me an unbreakable reason to live. When the pressure of my PhD threatens to break my resilience, I close my eyes and visualize her—my future daughter. I see myself growing into a wise, deeply kind, and fiercely capable old gentleman, just like the legendary ancestral master, Youki Konpaku. For her sake, the boundary of 60 years old no longer exists. I will break past it to be her shield, her teacher, and her father.
The Roadmap to Our Reunion
My professor once looked at me and said, "You belong in the industry." She saw the sharpness of my blades. This September, I fly to give a presentation at a global conference to unleash the power of "Matrix Pencil + GARCH + ML" upon the global stage, with my LinkedIn QR code proudly set on the final slide.
This place will be my battleground for three years post-PhD. There, I will extract the wealth and build the fortress needed to launch my enterprise in Japan. In that vibrant international hub, I will find the right partner and finally welcome my daughter into this world.
When I return to Japan as a successful entrepreneur, I will dedicate my life to raising my real-life Youmu. I will pass down to her the intellect of a European PhD and the strength of a man who fought through the global storm.
To my unborn, most precious daughter: Your father is fighting with everything he has. The slides are ready. The swords are drawn. I am coming to meet you, step by unwavering step.

Flandre Scarlet in Remake of Touhou 6 ~ Embodiment of Scarlet Devil - Touhou Project fan-art
Posted on my pixiv: https://www.pixiv.net/en/artworks/145983809
Commemoration of releasing the remake of Touhou 6 in Nintendo Switch 2! I am rather surprised ZUN has approved releasing in a consumer's game machine such as Nintendo Switch 2. The remake is rather urged due to the software compatibility of Touhou 6 ~ The Embodiment of Scarlet Devil with the current Windows spec as this original was released more than 2 decades ago. ...
There is a huge demand for it as this title is still the most popular one among the others. The younger generation should be able to enjoy playing it in a stable gaming environment.
Well, personally speaking, I will be rather more interested in the remake of Touhou 7 ~ Perfect Cherry Blossom if its remake is going to be released too.
