Sommario/riassunto

There are a wide range of variables for actuaries to consider when calculating a motorist's insurance premium, such as age, gender and type of vehicle. Further to these factors, motorists' rates are subject to experience rating systems, including credibility mechanisms and Bonus Malus systems (BMSs).  Actuarial Modelling of Claim Counts presents a comprehensive treatment of the various experience rating systems and their relationships with risk classification. The authors summarize the most recent developments in the field, presenting ratemaking systems, whilst taking into account e

Monografia

Sommario/riassunto

The book is intended for a wide range of readers and contains an introduction to various practically relevant aspects of curves with many illustrations: It offers a treatment of the differential geometric basics, of Bézier and B-spline representations, of rational and algebraic curves, and introduces the reader to some special curves, which are important for applications or historical reasons. Proofs requiring more in-depth mathematical knowledge are dispensed with.
