On credibility and robustness with the Kalman filter [PDF]
Bühlmann (1967) gave a formal Bayesian derivation of the credibility ratio estimators that actuaries had been using for many years. Since then various generalizations of Bühlmann's model have appeared in the literature, each relaxing the i.i.d ...

Credibility for stationarity. [PDF]
Summary: Results for the linear credibility estimators are given for general stationary premium models. The results are derived by applying recursions and formulas of the prediction theory of stationary stochastic processes. The paper extends former results of the author [Scand. Actuarial J.

dynoGP: Deep Gaussian Processes for Dynamic System Identification
This work introduces a novel class of deep models for system identification, dynamical deep Gaussian processes, which combine the strengths of data‐driven methods, such as those based on neural network architectures, with the ability to output a probability distribution for uncertainty representation.

Functionally graded metal–ceramic femoral stems are engineered through continuous UMAT‐based stiffness tailoring, eliminating discrete material interfaces while enhancing biomechanical compatibility. Low‐index power‐law gradation optimizes load transfer, reduces stress shielding, and controls implant–bone micromotion, highlighting a materials‐design ...
