Modeling Vehicle Insurance Loss Data Using a New Member of T-X Family of Distributions

open access: yesJournal of Statistical Theory and Applications (JSTA), 2020
In actuarial literature, we come across a diverse range of probability distributions for fitting insurance loss data. Popular distributions are lognormal, log-t, various versions of Pareto, log-logistic, Weibull, gamma and its variants and a generalized ...

Modelling Motor Insurance Claim Frequency and Severity Using Gradient Boosting

open access: yesRisks, 2023
Modelling claim frequency and claim severity are topics of great interest in property-casualty insurance for supporting underwriting, ratemaking, and reserving actuarial decisions. Standard Generalized Linear Models (GLM) frequency–severity models assume

Analysis of Exchange Rates as Time-Inhomogeneous Markov Chain with Finite States

open access: yesJournal of Applied Mathematics, 2022
Irrespective of whether the test for homogeneity is significant or not, most researchers assume time-homogeneity in analysing Markov chains due to scanty literature on the analysis of time-inhomogeneous Markov chains.
