Description: A literature review report that looks at research on how artificial intelligence is used in actuarial work.

Description: How the speed of change is accelerating and how we could react to this as a profession.

Description: PartnerRe Life and Health is rapidly growing its presence in global markets. This growth means that our medical underwriting team has to handle 25 percent more cases every year. To manage these additional cases without increasing headcount at the same pace, the team has to operate more and more efficiently. In a market where response time is a key differentiator, we improve efficiency by using machine learning to triage and prioritize the underwriting team's case work. In this talk, we describe the model pipeline end to end. That is, we cover the entire implementation chain from accessing data to the eventual evaluation of the added value. In particular, we discuss often neglected topics such as model risk mitigation, technical deployment of the model and integration into business processes.

Description: Neural Networks are no longer limited to classification and regression solutions to numeric problems. CNNs add the ability to classify images, and GANs can create new images. Learn how these capabilities can provide competitive advantages to early adopters, how they work, and how to implement them.

Description: There is enormous interest by investors and business leaders in the potential for artificial intelligence technologies, often powered by predictive modeling and machine learning, to transform the way that companies do business.

Description: Our firm has developed the first publicly available insured lives mortality table for Cambodia using data science methods. This essay provides a brief background, our approach and the impact of our work.

Description: As the insurance industry continues to evolve due to a pandemic and rapidly changing economic and regulatory conditions, the role of data scientists and actuaries has become increasingly important. In an interview with the Atidot data science and actuarial team, we discuss what it is like to work at an InsurTech, how data scientists and actuaries can collaborate, and look at some concrete technical examples of where the innovation is having an impact. This article explores what collaboration can look like and how the role of data science and actuary may evolve in the InsurTech industry in the future.

Description: The barrier between humans and machines continues to blur, but curiously, this may have been prediction thousands of years ago in ancient myths. This article looks to how some of the early legends are becoming manifest in modern technology, particularly in the area of elder care. From automation, to humanoid assistants, to mind clones will the age of technology bring a new utopia?

Description: Predictive modeling is a powerful toolset for assumption setting (mortality, lapse, etc.). The multivariate approach has its advantages in handling high-dimensional data, address correlations, and statistical significance. However, building insurance assumptions is far more than a simple modeling practice. One must take care to address how the model is applied and its business implications. This session will share the learnings from multiple projects.

Description: Ignite-style presentations feature presenters with 20 slides, automatically advancing every 15 seconds. The result is a fast and fun presentation which lasts just five minutes. The first portion of this session will feature insurtech innovators doing Ignite-style presentations on various insurtech topics. Then, stick around for the second portion when all presenters will take part in a moderated, talk show-style discussion. You'll get a chance to ask questions and dig deeper into the topics you just heard about. Find out how you can be part of the insurtech revolution. Be prepared for a fast-paced, thought-provoking session that you'll remember long after it ends!
