As Insurance is being impacted by new and disruptive technology, how will actuarial reserving techniques be impacted? Whilst triangle methods have traditionally been seen as the key methods in the reserving area, this may be challenged in the future by more complex expectations, improving technology, modelling capabilities, etc. Reserving practices are expected to keep changing, […]
The web session aims to equip actuarial professionals with the knowledge and skills behind the PyTorch framework, from fundamental concepts on how to apply this tool to practical actuarial problems and risk assessment. By the end of the course, participants will understand how to exploit and interact with PyTorch to develop deep learning models in […]
This web session is the third part of a four-part series at the German Actuarial Association (DAV). In this online training, we will expand on and deepen some of the topics already known from the basic and advanced trainings, discussing further important techniques in the context of deep learning and providing further theoretical foundations. It […]
The web session has two main aims: 1. Introduce the audience to the set of functional programming functions introduced in Excel 2024 (LAMBDA, LET, MAP, REDUCE, etc) and show how they can be used in practice to create algorithms previously out of Excel reach, such as loops, algorithms in more than 2 dimensions and recursion […]
In an era marked by unprecedented technological advancements, the actuarial landscape has experienced profound transformations. The exponential growth of computational power and the abundance of data have converged and provide an exciting opportunity for the actuarial profession to redefine its boundaries and explore the ethical implications of this new field. The role of actuaries is […]
