1. Stochastic claims reserving in non-life insurance : Bootstrap and smoothing models
Abstract : In practice there is a long tradition of actuaries calculating reserve estimates according to deterministic methods without explicit reference to a stochastic model. For instance, the chain-ladder was originally a deterministic reserving method. READ MORE

4. Stochastic modelling in disability insurance
Abstract : This thesis consists of two papers related to the stochastic modellingof disability insurance. In the first paper, we propose a stochastic semi-Markovian framework for disability modelling in a multi-period discrete-time setting. READ MORE

5. Tree-based machine learning methods with non-life insurance applications
Abstract : Non-life insurance is a field which has been data-driven for a long time, with the statistical framework behind modern-day actuarial sciences laid out at the beginning of the 20th century. Problems regarding the estimation and prediction of risk are relevant to the insurance industry specifically, but also for society as a whole. READ MORE
