Credibility using semiparametric models and a loss function with a constancy penalty
In credibility ratemaking, one seeks to estimate the conditional mean of a given risk. The most accurate estimator (as measured by squared error loss) is the predictive mean. To calculate the predictive mean one needs the conditional distribution of losses given the parameter of interest (often the conditional mean) and the prior distribution of the parameter of interest.

متن کاملSemiparametric Regression Models for Claims Reserving and Credibility: the Mixed Model Approach
Verrall (1996) and England & Verrall (2001) considered the use of smoothing methods in the context of claims reserving, by applying two smoothing procedures in a likelihood-based way, namely the locally weighted regression smoother (‘loess’) and the cubic smoothing spline smoother. Using the statistical methodology of semiparametric regression and its connection with mixed models (see e.g. Rupp...

متن کاملCredibility Models
We present a general hierarchical Bayesian model where Intelligence Sources make Reports about events or states in the world, which we call Hypotheses. The underlying multi-entity Bayes net for even a simple scenario has hundreds of nodes. We hide the details via Wigmore diagrams and a Google Maps GUI. Our application domain is Intelligence data fusion in asymmetrical warfare (terrorism). Some ...
متن کاملGaussian Semiparametric Analysis Using Hierarchical Predictive Models
The Hierarchical Predictive Model (HPM) is a semiparametric mixed model where the fixed effects are fit with a user-specified non-parametric component. This approach extends current spline-based semiparametric mixed model formulations, allowing for more flexible nonparametric estimation. Greater adaptability simplifies model specification making it easier to analyze data sets with large numbers...
