Using Neural Networks to Model Premium Price Sensitivity of Automobile Insurance Customers
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper describes a neural network modelling approach to premium price sensitivity of insurance policy holders. Clustering is used to classify policy holders into homogeneous risk groups. Within each cluster a neural network is then used to predict retention rates given demographic and policy information, including the premium change from one year to the next. It is shown that the prediction results are significantly improved by further dividing each cluster according to premium change. This work is part of a larger data mining framework proposed to determine optimal premium prices in a data-driven manner.

Automobile hull insurance has attracted much attention due to the high rate of vehicle applications in daily lives. Since purchasing these policies is optional in Iran and their premium rates are set competitively, a competition is formed among the insurance companies for attracting low risk drivers. However, most of the insurers still use comparative rates and pay no or less attention to the f...

متن کاملFast Unsupervised Automobile Insurance Fraud Detection Based on Spectral Ranking of Anomalies
Collecting insurance fraud samples is costly and if performed manually is very time consuming. This issue suggests usage of unsupervised models. One of the accurate methods in this regards is Spectral Ranking of Anomalies (SRA) that is shown to work better than other methods for auto insurance fraud detection specifically. However, this approach is not scalable to large samples and is not appro...
