Book Description
This book begins with the fundamental large sample theory, estimating ruin probability, and ends by dealing with the latest issues of estimating the Gerber–Shiu function. This book is the first to introduce the recent development of statistical methodologies in risk theory (ruin theory) as well as their mathematical validities. Asymptotic theory of parametric and nonparametric inference for the ruin-related quantities is discussed under the setting of not only classical compound Poisson risk processes (Cramér–Lundberg model) but also more general Lévy insurance risk processes. The recent development of risk theory can deal with many kinds of ruin-related quantities: the probability of ruin as well as Gerber–Shiu’s discounted penalty function, both of which are useful in insurance risk management and in financial credit risk analysis. In those areas, the common stochastic models are used in the context of the structural approach of companies’ default. So far, the probabilistic point of view has been the main concern for academic researchers. However, this book emphasizes the statistical point of view because identifying the risk model is always necessary and is crucial in the final step of practical risk management.

Stochastic Storage Processes
Author: N.U. Prabhu
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 1461217423
Category : Mathematics
Languages : en
Pages : 218
Book Description
A self-contained treatment of stochastic processes arising from models for queues, insurance risk, and dams and data communication, using their sample function properties. The approach is based on the fluctuation theory of random walks, L vy processes, and Markov-additive processes, in which Wiener-Hopf factorisation plays a central role. This second edition includes results for the virtual waiting time and queue length in single server queues, while the treatment of continuous time storage processes is thoroughly revised and simplified. With its prerequisite of a graduate-level course in probability and stochastic processes, this book can be used as a text for an advanced course on applied probability models.

ISBN: 0387743170
Category : Mathematics
Languages : en
Pages : 452
Book Description
Stochastic Partial Differential Equations analyzes mathematical models of time-dependent physical phenomena on microscopic, macroscopic and mesoscopic levels. It provides a rigorous derivation of each level from the preceding one and examines the resulting mesoscopic equations in detail. Coverage first describes the transition from the microscopic equations to the mesoscopic equations. It then covers a general system for the positions of the large particles.

Effective Statistical Methods for Group Insurance
Author: Nanak Chand
Publisher: Trafford Publishing
ISBN: 1553957741
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 126
Book Description
Given the risk characteristics and the observed claim cost for the experience period, this book describes some ways in which statistical methods can be used in the calculation of net premiums for individual groups having non-identical risk characteristics and credibility generally less than one. The applications result in unique credibility formulas that take into account the individual characteristics, and are expected to provide adequate, equitable, and competitive premiums. The underlying methods are designed to be consistent with current actuarial practice, though giving attention to occasional need for suitable modifications. Since stop loss claim costs are a function of the behavior of the tails of their respective distributions, this part of the book assesses such claim cost using well established parametric models, and provides comprehensive tables of the corresponding stop loss premiums.
