Description: This article will be focused on maximizing the reuse of code using features available within Moody’s Axis specifically targeted at using Formula Link.

Description: Python has become the fastest-growing major programming language in the world. It has surged in popularity over the last decade, following the development of its industry-leading capabilities in data science, machine learning and artificial intelligence, and it is now one of the most globally popular and widely used languages. In this article, I discuss some of the reasons for its popularity and explain why many actuaries and insurers have started using Python.

Description: From a session at a meeting of the Society of Actuaries held in San Diego, CA, June 22-23, 2000 The panel discussion covered: · The basic concepts underlying fuzzy logic · Current applications to risk classification and pricing · Possible future uses of fuzzy logic · The basic concepts underlying neural networks · Current applications of neural networks in life insurance · Possible future uses of neural networks

Description: Article from The Actuary, June 1971 – volume 5 - Issue 6 is a recap of the LOMA Systems Forum held in New York, March 15-17, 1971.

Description: The purpose of this article is to provide an overview of soft computing applications in actuarial science. Soft computing refers to modes of computing in which precision is traded for tractability, robustness and ease of implementation.

Description: Most actuaries deal with model development at some point in their career. However, very few of us have proper training in programming, software engineering or software shop operations. Explore topics, techniques, and practices from the FinTech and IT industries that can be applied to building robust, high-quality actuarial models. This session will be of particular interest to actuaries engaged in 'in-house' model development, managers of modeling teams, and actuaries interested in software development.
