Non-life Insurance Mathematics / Non-life Insurance Mathematics

Yamazato, Makoto 25 September 2017 (has links)
In this work we describe the basic facts of non-life insurance and then explain risk processes. In particular, we will explain in detail the asymptotic behavior of the probability that an insurance product may end up in ruin during its lifetime. As expected, the behavior of such asymptotic probability will be highly dependent on the tail distribution of each claim. / En este artículo describimos los conceptos básicos relacionados a seguros que no sean de vida y luego explicamos procesos de riesgo. En particular, tratamos al detalle el comportamiento asintótico de la probabilidad de que un producto sea declarado en ruina. Como es suponible, el comportamiento en el horizonte depende de la cola de la distribución de las primas.

EM algorithm for Markov chains observed via Gaussian noise and point process information: Theory and case studies

Damian, Camilla, Eksi-Altay, Zehra, Frey, Rüdiger January 2018 (has links) (PDF)
In this paper we study parameter estimation via the Expectation Maximization (EM) algorithm for a continuous-time hidden Markov model with diffusion and point process observation. Inference problems of this type arise for instance in credit risk modelling. A key step in the application of the EM algorithm is the derivation of finite-dimensional filters for the quantities that are needed in the E-Step of the algorithm. In this context we obtain exact, unnormalized and robust filters, and we discuss their numerical implementation. Moreover, we propose several goodness-of-fit tests for hidden Markov models with Gaussian noise and point process observation. We run an extensive simulation study to test speed and accuracy of our methodology. The paper closes with an application to credit risk: we estimate the parameters of a hidden Markov model for credit quality where the observations consist of rating transitions and credit spreads for US corporations.
