This Thursday, Julien Trufin will be giving a talk at the CANSSI SSC Seminar, live from Montréal
Machine learning techniques provide actuaries with predictors exhibiting high correlation with claim frequencies and severities. However, these predictors generally fail to achieve financial equilibrium and thus do not qualify as pure premiums. Autocalibration effectively addresses this issue since it ensures that every group of policyholders paying the same premium is on average self-financing. This talk proposes to look at recent results concerning autocalibration. In particular, we present a new characterization of autocalibration which enables us to identify whether a predictor is autocalibrated or not, we study a method (called balance correction) for obtaining an autocalibrated predictor from any regression model, we highlight the effect of balance correction on resulting pure premiums, and finally we go through some performance criteria that are particularly relevant for autocalibrated predictors.
Julien is actually with us the entiere week.
