SEMINAR

6/7 Apr 2017 in Prague

Artificial Intelligence & Big Data in Insurance – Theory and Practice

The rapidly progressing digitalisation leads to enormous amounts of data, which can be used to enhance the core processes of the insurance industry. An important precondition to derive the right decisions from the data is to increase the knowledge on statistical methods in general and artificial intelligence in special.

Organised by the EAA - European Actuarial Academy GmbH.

Participants

Participants should have basic previous knowledge in stochastics and probability theory. No specific statistical knowledge is required.

During this seminar, you will need a laptop where R and RStudio are already installed.

Purpose and Nature

The seminar focusses on illustrating the theoretical foundations of modern statistical and machine learning methods. The understanding of these foundations is a crucial prerequisite for the practical application of the methods. Practical examples and do-it yourself sessions are following each theory block and create a reference to the insurance industry.

Language

The language of the seminar will be English.
