EAA Web Session "Actuarial Data Science - Completion"

Einleitung/Dauer

Organised by the EAA - European Actuarial Academy GmbH in cooperation with the Aktuarvereinigung Österreichs (AVÖ).

This is part four of four courses required to obtain the EAA Certificate in Actuarial Data Science. To earn the certificate, participants must complete all four modules, which include both the seminar and the exam. Members of AVÖ and/or DAV will obtain the additional title Certified Actuarial Data Scientist (by AVÖ and/or DAV) by fulfilling the same requirements.

Furthermore, all courses are open to interested actuaries to deepen their knowledge and skills in the field of Actuarial Data Science (without exams).

Introduction
Due to technological progress in connection with Data Science and Digitalization, summarized under the buzzword Big Data, a plethora of opportunities and challenges for the industry is arising.

Technological developments have now also reached the insurance industry and thus have a direct impact on the working world of actuaries.

Under the heading Actuarial Data Science, the procedures and methods of data mining are embedded in the actuarial context. These range from mathematics-driven statistical methods for derivation of insights from data to computation-driven methods sometimes summarized as machine learning. As a result of almost unlimited computing capacity through cloud computing and wide availability of training data, tried and tested methods of machine learning, such as artificial neural networks, are experiencing a renaissance in theory and practice.

This web session is the fourth part of a four-part series at the German Actuarial Association (DAV). In this online training, we will expand on and deepen some of the topics already known from the basic, advanced and immersion seminar, discussing further important techniques in the context of deep learning and data storage. It is based on the learning objectives of the DAV for Actuarial Data Science Immersion, which is part of the actuarial training in Germany.

Vorgehensweise und Ziele

Based on the building blocks known from the preceding courses, we want to deepen some topics and present further important topics from the field of Actuarial Data Science.

In this three-day training, we deepen techniques and methods of (Actuarial) Data Science and take a rather theoretical tour to complete this course. We will cover important aspects of information theory from coding theory to web computing and close the mathematical foundations of deep learning. Along with insights in relevant aspects of insurance analytics we will investigate use cases in an insurance context. Finally, we will give a prospect of what is probably going to emerge in the future, namely quantum computing.

Teilnehmer

This web session is suited for actuaries (and actuaries in training), interested persons and for everyone who wants to get to know the topic (more precisely). Previous knowledge in Actuarial Data Science is helpful, but not mandatory. A solid mathematical education is necessary to follow some of the concepts that will be presented.

Technical Requirements
Please check with your IT department if your firewall and computer settings support web session participation (the programme Zoom will be used for this online training). Please also make sure to join the web session with a stable internet connection.

Dozierende

Wolfgang Abele joined Deloitte 2018 as Senior Manager in the actuarial Non-Life team. He has more than 18 years of experience in the consulting and insurance industry, having worked for HDI Versicherung AG, MSG Consulting und Allianz. Before he joined Deloitte Wolfgang was head of the unit Reserving & Reinsurance.Throughout his career, he was involved in a large number of actuarial projects, in pricing, reserving (IFRS, local GAAP, Solvency II), internal modelling and risk management. His focus was on predictive modelling, analytics, and process optimization. He has extensive knowledge in the programming language R and gives seminars on actuarial data science for the Deutsche Aktuar-Akademie (DAA).

Dr Lukas Best is a certified actuary (DAV) and works as the lead data scientist at SV SparkassenVersicherung in Stuttgart, Germany. The focus of his work lies on both the development and productive deployment of statistical and machine learning models in SV's big data ecosystems. Before joining SV in 2019, Lukas worked at the Institute of Finance and Actuarial Science (ifa) in Ulm as a senior consultant on data analytics. He is a lecturer for the German certification programme on actuarial data science for the DAA.

Dr Axel Kaiser is a mathematician and actuary (DAV) at SIGNAL IDUNA Krankenversicherung a. G. He is the appointed actuary for health insurance and member of the DAV committee for actuarial data science.

Dr René Külheim is a mathematician and actuary (DAV) at PTA GmbH, where he heads the artificial intelligence department. In addition to data science-based project work in the financial sector, he is responsible for cloud-based software products with AI components.

Dr Zoran Nikolić is a certified actuarial data scientist (DAV) working at B&W Deloitte in Cologne. For years he has lectured on actuarial, risk management and machine learning topics for DAV and the University of Cologne. In addition, he is a lecturer with the German Actuarial Academy (DAA) for Actuarial Data Science and member of the Committee Actuarial Data Scienceof DAV.

Prof Dr Jonas Offtermatt is a professor of programming and mathematics at DHBW Stuttgart. He has been working as a programming actuary since 2015 and has been teaching at DAA since 2019. With previous leadership roles in the insurance industry, he possesses extensive experience of IT-management and software development.

Dr Antonia Schöning is a mathematician and actuary (DAV). She is working as a senior data scientist at Siemens Smart Infrastructure, developing AI applications and maintaining machine learning in operations for the energy sector.

Dr Jan-Philipp Simen studied business and economics (Wirtschaftswissenschaften) first at TU Dortmund and then at the University of Hohenheim. There he received his doctorate in 2015 with a dissertation on "Estimating operational cost functions with artificial neural networks". Dr Simen was a data scientist at Volkswagen AG from 2015 to 2017. Since 2017 he has been working at Carl Zeiss AG in Munich. As a senior ML engineer, he is responsible for a cloud application for deep learning and computer vision used throughout the ZEISS group.

Prof Dr Fabian Transchel holds the endowed chair of e+s Rück for Data Science at Harz University of Applied Sciences, Wernigerode, Germany. He's an avid proponent of Machine Learning and Artificial Intelligence in the insurance sector and has been instrumental in innovating motor insurance through telematics technologies, these days also teaching Actuarial Data Science for DAA and EAA.

Prof Dr Christian Weiss teaches mathematics, statistics and artificial intelligence at Ruhr West University of Applied Sciences. After completing his PhD studies in Bonn and Frankfurt, he worked as an actuary in risk management before returning to academia and finishing his habilitation. He has published more than 35 papers and four books in various areas of mathematics including data science, probability theory and financial and actuarial mathematics. Moreover, he works as a part time consultant in the insurance industry at Deloitte.
