I run the following: library(actuar) x <- seq(0, 22, 0.5) fl <- discretize(plnorm(x, 2.1), from = 0, to = 22, step = 0.5, method ="lower") Fs <- aggregateDist("recursive", model.freq = "poisson",model.sev = fl, lambda = 10, x.scale = 0.5) Warning message: In panjer(fx = model.sev, dist = dist, p0 = p0, x.scale = x.scale, : maximum number of recursions reached before the probability distribution was complete # Should i be worried about the warning message. # How do i choose the domain of the x function bearing in mind that the original severity data was running in the interval(9 to 17). I had achieved this interval by applying the natural log transformation on the original severity data. # i had obtained the parameters meanlog = 11.69 and sdlog=2.1. How do these parameters feature when discretizing the log normal so as to apply it in the aggregate disrtibution # I also run following for the aggregate distribution as i had fitted the negative binomial for the frequency distribution. library(actuar) x <- seq(0, 22, 0.5) fl <- discretize(plnorm(x, 2.1), from = 0, to = 22, step = 0.5, method ="lower") Fs <- aggregateDist("recursive", model.freq = "negative binomial",model.sev = fl, mu= 10, x.scale = 0.5) Error in panjer(fx = model.sev, dist = dist, p0 = p0, x.scale = x.scale, : value of 'prob' or 'size' missing I also run the following as i wanted to use the convolution method for the aggregate distribution: library(actuar) x <- seq(0, 22, 0.5) fl <- discretize(plnorm(x, 2.1), from = 0, to = 22, step = 0.5, method ="lower") Fs <- aggregateDist("convolution", model.freq = "negative binomial",model.sev = fl, mu= 10, x.scale = 0.5) Error in aggregateDist("convolution", model.freq = "negative binomial", : 'model.freq' must be a vector of probabilities Finally how do i deal with the natural log transformation i had applied to the severity distribution when fitting the aggregate distribution noting that the frequency distribution was fitted without the natural log transformation.
