The main theme of this thesis is to investigate some discrete-time risk models with claim numbers modeled by integer-valued time series processes. The first model is a common shock risk model with temporal dependence between the claim numbers in each individual class of business. Specifically the Poisson MA(1) process and Poisson AR(1) process are considered for the temporal dependence. To study the ruin probability, the equations associated with the adjustment coefficients are derived. Comparisons are also made to assess the impact of the dependence structures on the ruin probability. Another model involving both the correlated classes of business and the time series approach is then studied. Thinning dependence structure is adopted to model the dependence among classes of business. The Poisson MA(1) and Poisson AR(1) processes are used to describe the claim-number processes. Adjustment coefficients and ruin probabilities are examined. Finally a discrete-time risk model with the claim number following a Poisson ARCH process is proposed. In this model, the mean of the current claim number depends on the previous observations. Within this framework, the equation for finding the adjustment coefficient is derived. Numerical studies are also carried out to examine the effect of the Poisson ARCH dependence structure on several risk measures including ruin probability, Value at Risk, and conditional tail expectation.

Book Modeling Discrete Time to Event Data

Download or read book Modeling Discrete Time to Event Data written by Gerhard Tutz and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-06-14 with total page 252 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book focuses on statistical methods for the analysis of discrete failure times. Failure time analysis is one of the most important fields in statistical research, with applications affecting a wide range of disciplines, in particular, demography, econometrics, epidemiology and clinical research. Although there are a large variety of statistical methods for failure time analysis, many techniques are designed for failure times that are measured on a continuous scale. In empirical studies, however, failure times are often discrete, either because they have been measured in intervals (e.g., quarterly or yearly) or because they have been rounded or grouped. The book covers well-established methods like life-table analysis and discrete hazard regression models, but also introduces state-of-the art techniques for model evaluation, nonparametric estimation and variable selection. Throughout, the methods are illustrated by real life applications, and relationships to survival analysis in continuous time are explained. Each section includes a set of exercises on the respective topics. Various functions and tools for the analysis of discrete survival data are collected in the R package discSurv that accompanies the book.

Book Discrete Time Risk Models With Random Premiums

Download or read book Discrete Time Risk Models With Random Premiums written by Llewellyn Hillyer Smith and published by . This book was released on 2019 with total page 68 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the past century insurance companies relied to a large extent on the continuous time Mathematical Risk Model proposed by Lundberg, known for its ability to estimate the probability of ruin(capital reserve falling below zero), given the initial capital, linear premium rate and cumulative random size claims occurring at random times. In this Dissertation we introduce a discrete time risk model that allows random premiums, and derive the estimates of the ruin probabilities on both finite and infinite time horizons. Tools applied are drawn from modern probability and include,Martingales, Invariance Principle for Brownian motions, and Large Deviation Principle for the asymptotics of rare events. Our considerations can be dubbed "end of the day model", as ruin is neither declared nor acted upon when it falls between successive discrete times.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides an overview of the latest developments in the field of risk analysis (RA). Statistical methodologies have long-since been employed as crucial decision support tools in RA. Thus, in the context of this new century, characterized by a variety of daily risks - from security to health risks - the importance of exploring theoretical and applied issues connecting RA and statistical modeling (SM) is self-evident. In addition to discussing the latest methodological advances in these areas, the book explores applications in a broad range of settings, such as medicine, biology, insurance, pharmacology and agriculture, while also fostering applications in newly emerging areas. This book is intended for graduate students as well as quantitative researchers in the area of RA.

Book Introduction to Time Series and Forecasting

Download or read book Introduction to Time Series and Forecasting written by Peter J. Brockwell and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-03-14 with total page 429 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Some of the key mathematical results are stated without proof in order to make the underlying theory acccessible to a wider audience. The book assumes a knowledge only of basic calculus, matrix algebra, and elementary statistics. The emphasis is on methods and the analysis of data sets. The logic and tools of model-building for stationary and non-stationary time series are developed in detail and numerous exercises, many of which make use of the included computer package, provide the reader with ample opportunity to develop skills in this area. The core of the book covers stationary processes, ARMA and ARIMA processes, multivariate time series and state-space models, with an optional chapter on spectral analysis. Additional topics include harmonic regression, the Burg and Hannan-Rissanen algorithms, unit roots, regression with ARMA errors, structural models, the EM algorithm, generalized state-space models with applications to time series of count data, exponential smoothing, the Holt-Winters and ARAR forecasting algorithms, transfer function models and intervention analysis. Brief introducitons are also given to cointegration and to non-linear, continuous-time and long-memory models. The time series package included in the back of the book is a slightly modified version of the package ITSM, published separately as ITSM for Windows, by Springer-Verlag, 1994. It does not handle such large data sets as ITSM for Windows, but like the latter, runs on IBM-PC compatible computers under either DOS or Windows (version 3.1 or later). The programs are all menu-driven so that the reader can immediately apply the techniques in the book to time series data, with a minimal investment of time in the computational and algorithmic aspects of the analysis.
