Insurance data in library(MASS)

package gbm, predict.gbm with offset
Dear all, the help file for predict.gbm states that "The predictions from gbm do not include the offset term. The user may add the value of the offset to the predicted value if desired." I am just not sure how exactly, especially for a Poisson model, where I believe the offset is multiplicative ? For example: library(MASS) fit1 <- glm(Claims ~ District + Group + Age +

Validation errors in has_one/belongs_to relationships.
I have two objects, QuoteInput and Insured. QuoteInput has one Insured and Insured belongs to QuoteInput. I don''t understand what I''m seeing. I assign an Insured to a QuoteInput. The Insured object has invalid data. I call save! on the quote input. QuoteInput has no validations. I expect two things to happen - 1) an exception should be thrown, indicating that there was a

comma separated format
Hi All, I'm trying to create labels to plot such that it doesn't show up as scientific notation. So for example how do I get R to show 1e06 as $1,000,000. I was wondering if there was a single function which allows you to do that, the same way that as.Date() allows you to show in date format on a plot. Thanks, Sachin --- Please consider the environment before printing this email ---

A coding question involving variable assignments in ifelse()
Dear List, Below is a simple, standard loss model that takes into account the terms of an insurance policy: deductible <- 15 coverage.limit <- 75 insurance.threshold <- deductible + coverage.limit tmpf <- function() { loss <- rlnorm(rpois(1, 3), 2, 5) sum(ifelse(loss > insurance.threshold, loss - coverage.limit, pmin(loss, deductible))) } net <- replicate(1000000, tmpf())

switching only axis off in plot
Hi R, In the following code my x-axis is formatted in month format. Which Im happy with. The y-axis is what I want to re-format with something else. My question is, is it possible just to switch off the xaxis in plot function (see below). If not how do you get the months to show up as FEB-YYYY, MAR-YYYY and so on, so I could fit a label on x-axis. Thanks, Sachin p.s. sorry about corporate

In-Line List Editing with AJAX
I''m trying to write an interface for editing many-to-one relationships with AJAX. Picture the to-do editor in Backpack (and, to a lesser extent, Basecamp) and you''ll have a good idea of what I''m trying to do. I''ve almost got everything working: the ''edit'' link hides the stored data and replaces it with a form, and the data is updated in the

Insurance review statistical methods
Hi R users: I will like to know if somebody works on insurance statistics (actuarial problems) and had use TRICAST, and can tell me if with all the R tools it can be build a solution like TRICAST or similar. In a word: Do you think that R has all the statistical tools (I mean modeling tools) to make a job similar to TRICAST? Does TRICAST has modeling tools that are not implemented on R yet?

Hi all, Just following on from a previous thread (for loop). Is there a parallel 'for' loop like matlab (parfor maybe?). I know there was a Nvidia GPU version for blas somewhere.

trouble with plotting data- possible bug?
Hi all, When I write out some values and then use 'plot' and 'lines' respectively I can get R to plot me two lines. However when I get the data from a csv file and run it I only manage to get one line running (whichever was invoked first). The sample files are attached below and I've reproduced the code below with the suspicious part marked as #??? (not even sure if thats

Dedicated packages have been written, numerous presentations given, courses held, businesses set up, and IT departments convinced. ;-) Therefore, together with Markus Gesmann of Lloyd's of London, we created a Special Interest Group mailing list to discuss R usage in actuarial

cannot see the y-labels (getting cut-off)
Hi All, When I run the following code, I cannot see the entire number. As opposed to seeing 1,000,000,000. I only see 000,000 because the rest is cut off. The cex option doesn't seem to be doing anything at all. y<-seq(1e09,5e09,1e09); plot(1:5,y,ylab='',yaxt='n' ); axis(2, at=y, labels=formatC(y,big.mark=",",format="fg"),las=2,cex=0.1); Any thoughts?

plot options including formatting axes
Hi All, Currently my plot shows the y-axis in scientific notation (1e07 and so on). I want to be able to display this in dollars such that it shows $10,000,000 (including the commas). How do I do this. Also with the xlabel and ylabel. I've specified: 'title('Cash vs Time',xlab='Period',ylab=''); Im hoping that this will also not display anything on the y-axis.
