Introduction to Machine Learning: Predictive Modeling in Insurance for Actuaries and their Stakeholders
In this presentation we’ll explore fundamental machine learning concepts tailored for actuaries. Topics range from machine learning theory, common algorithms such as GLMs and GBMs, and the basics of predictive modeling, equipping you with the knowledge to enhance your actuarial practices. In addition to junior modelers or modeling curious actuaries, this presentation also benefits stakeholders who are not building models but want to have a better understanding of what goes into them.
