Actuarial Science Final Year Topic: Comparison of Claim Frequency Models on a Synthetic Exposure Dataset

This Actuarial Science final year project examines how prespecified count models describe generated claims under disclosed exposure assumptions.

Why choose this project topic?

Comparison of Claim Frequency Models on a Synthetic Exposure Dataset gives the proposal a specific research question to investigate. By examining how prespecified count models describe generated claims under disclosed exposure assumptions, the study can connect an accessible evidence base with an explicit comparison and a useful account of uncertainty.

Which candidate model gives the best calibrated counts on an independent synthetic checking set?

Use non-sensitive synthetic variables and disclose every assumption.

Proposed project objectives

  1. 01Define a feasible study scope for how prespecified count models describe generated claims under disclosed exposure assumptions.
  2. 02Generate transparent fictional counts with documented exposure and separate fitting and checking samples.
  3. 03Compare calibration and prediction error without pricing real policies.

A suggested research approach

Generate transparent fictional counts with documented exposure and separate fitting and checking samples. Compare calibration and prediction error without pricing real policies. Agree access, sampling and any required ethical or laboratory approval with your supervisor before collection. Keep original observations separate from assumptions and record missing or unusable evidence.

What you will need

  • Synthetic data
  • Qualified actuarial supervisor
  • Statistical software

Keep your project scope clear

Performance depends on the generating assumptions and cannot validate an operational pricing model.
