  2. Credibility theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Credibility_theory

    Credibility theory is a branch of actuarial mathematics concerned with determining risk premiums. [1] To achieve this, it uses mathematical models in an effort to forecast the ( expected ) number of insurance claims based on past observations.

  3. Bühlmann model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bühlmann_model

    In credibility theory, a branch of study in actuarial science, the Bühlmann model is a random effects model (or "variance components model" or hierarchical linear model) used to determine the appropriate premium for a group of insurance contracts. The model is named after Hans Bühlmann who first published a description in 1967.

  4. Actuarial science - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Actuarial_science

    Actuarial science is the discipline that applies mathematical and statistical methods to assess risk in insurance, pension, finance, investment and other industries and professions. Actuaries are professionals trained in this discipline.

  5. Automated analyser - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Automated_analyser

    An automated analyser is a medical laboratory instrument designed to measure various substances and other characteristics in a number of biological samples quickly, with minimal human assistance. These measured properties of blood and other fluids may be useful in the diagnosis of disease.

    That is, if portfolio always has better values than portfolio under almost all scenarios then the risk of should be less than the risk of . [2] E.g. If is an in the money call option (or otherwise) on a stock, and is also an in the money call option with a lower strike price.

  7. AutoAnalyzer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AutoAnalyzer

    For typical assays commonly measured with FIA (e.g., nitrite, nitrate, ammonia, phosphate) it is not uncommon to have a throughput of 60-120 samples per hour. FIA methods are limited by the amount of time necessary to obtain a measurable signal since travel time through the tubing tends to broaden peaks to the point where samples can merge with ...

  8. Analytical quality control - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Analytical_quality_control

    AQC is achieved through laboratory control of analytical performance. Initial control of the complete system can be achieved through specification of laboratory services, instrumentation, glassware, reagents, solvents, and gases. However, evaluation of daily performance must be documented to ensure continual production of valid data.

  9. Actuarial control cycle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Actuarial_control_cycle

    The actuarial control cycle is a specific business activity which involves the application of actuarial science to real world business problems. The actuarial control cycle requires a professional within that field (i.e., an actuary ) to specify a problem, develop a solution, monitor the consequences thereof, and repeat the process. [ 1 ]
