A typology of models used in actuarial science
South African Actuarial Journal, 2006 This paper proposes a categorisation of the models used in actuarial science. It illustrates the application of that categorisation by using it to classify numerous such models. It is suggested that this categorisation, together with the illustrative classification, may be used as a typology for the classification of other such models, and that this ...

Cost‐effectiveness of second‐line therapies in adults with chronic immune thrombocytopenia
American Journal of Hematology, Volume 98, Issue 1, Page 122-130, January 2023., 2023 Abstract Major options for second‐line therapy in adults with chronic immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) include splenectomy, rituximab, and thrombopoietin receptor agonists (TRAs). The American Society of Hematology guidelines recommend rituximab over splenectomy, TRAs over rituximab, and splenectomy or TRAs while noting a lack of evidence on the cost ...

Canadian Journal of Statistics, Volume 50, Issue 4, Page 1228-1249, December 2022., 2022 Abstract Statisticians recommend design and analysis of experiments (DAE) for evidence‐based research but often use tables to present their own simulation studies. Could DAE do better? We outline how DAE methods can be used to plan and analyze simulation studies.
