SCOR Project Newsletter #2

The second newsletter, related to the SCOR research project is now available. It is a brief summary of the second six months block, from April till the end of September (the first one is available here).

As explained, over the past six months, we have had several interns, including Noé Bosc-Haddad, Florent Crouzet, Julien Siharath, Ana María Patrón Piñerez and Cassandra Mussard, the visit of Laurence Barry and Fei Huang, Philipp Ratz and Samuel Stocksieker defended their PhD, François Hu finished his postdoctoral fellowship, while Marouane Il Idrissi and Arsene Zotsa just arrived, Agathe Fernandes Machado and Olivier Côté (co-supervised with Ewen Gallic and Marie-Pier Côté) finished their PhD courses and are now 100% on their research… We wrote papers, gave talks… Thank you to all those who have supported us, and continue to support us. At least two more years to work on insurance and predictive models, fairness, calibration, discrimination, trust, explainability, interpretability, market equilibria, competition, generative models, and so much more… We’ve still got a lot of work to do, and plenty of enthusiasm!

Workshop on fairness and discrimination in insurance (registration is open)

Almost two years ago, on May 13th 2022, we organized a Workshop on fairness and discrimination in insurance, JEDA’22, at Laval University (in Québec city), with Marie-Pier Côté.

It was a beautiful sucess, with a lot of persons in person, for one of the first event post-pandemic. The second workshop (JEDA’24) will be organized in less than a month, on May 16th.
