On the Use of Lehmann’s Alternative to Capture Extreme Losses in Actuarial Science
This paper studies properties and applications related to the mixture of the class of distributions built by the Lehmann’s alternative (also referred to in the statistical literature as max-stable or exponentiated distribution) of the form [G(·)]λ, where

Alleviating Class Imbalance in Actuarial Applications Using Generative Adversarial Networks
To build adequate predictive models, a substantial amount of data is desirable. However, when expanding to new or unexplored territories, this required level of information is rarely always available.

A Proposal Based on Stochastic Differential Equations for Income [PDF]
Previous work has highlighted the need to apply stochastic modeling to understand the dynamics of phenomena occurring in the insurance industry. In this paper, for life insurance and applying a stochastic approach under efficient markets, we use survival

Mixed Models for Predictive Modelling in Actuarial Science [PDF]
We start with a general discussion of mixed (also called multilevel) models and continue with illustrating specific (actuarial) applications of this type of models. Technical details on (linear, generalized, non-linear) mixed models follow: model assumptions, specifications, estimation techniques and methods of inference.

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