  • Conditional likelihood based inference on single-index models for motor insurance claim severity 

    Bolancé Losilla, Catalina; Cao, Ricardo; Guillén, Montserrat (Institut d'Estadistica de Catalunya, 2024)
    [Abstract]: Prediction of a traffc accident cost is one of the major problems in motor insurance. To identify the factors that infuence costs is one of the main challenges of actuarial modelling. Telematics data about ...
  • Unsupervised Classification of Categorical Time Series Through Innovative Distances 

    López-Oriona, Ángel; Vilar, José; D'Urso, Pierpaolo (Springer Science and Business Media Deutschland GmbH, 2023)
    [Abstract]: In this paper, two novel distances for nominal time series are introduced. Both of them are based on features describing the serial dependence patterns between each pair of categories. The first dissimilarity ...
  • On benefits of cooperation under strategic power 

    Fiestras Janeiro, María Gloria; García-Jurado, Ignacio; Meca Martínez, Ana; Mosquera Rodríguez, Manuel Alfredo (Springer, 2020-05)
    [Abstract]: We introduce a new model involving TU-games and exogenous structures. Specifically, we consider that each player in a population can choose an element in a strategy set and that, for every possible strategy ...
  • A heuristic approach to the task planning problem in a home care business 

    Méndez-Fernández, Isabel; Lorenzo Freire, Silvia; García-Jurado, Ignacio; Costa, Julián; Carpente, Luisa (Springer, 2020-12)
    [Abstract]: In this paper, we study a task scheduling problem in a home care business. The company has a set of supervisors in charge of scheduling the caregivers’ weekly plans. This can be a time-consuming task due to the ...
  • Flexible maximum conditional likelihood estimation for single-index models to predict accident severity with telematics data 

    Bolancé Losilla, Catalina; Cao, Ricardo; Guillén, Montserrat (Universitat de Barcelona.Institut de Recerca en Economia Aplicada Regional i Pública (IREA), 2018)
    [Abstract]: Estimation in single-index models for risk assessment is developed. Statistical properties are given and an application to estimate the cost of traffic accidents in an innovative insurance data set that has ...
