Statistical regression analysis is a powerful and reliable method to determine the impact of
one or several independent variable (s) on a dependent variable. It is the most widely used …

This book introduces the novel concept of a fuzzy network. In particular, it describes further
developments of some results from its predecessor book on Complexity Management in …

We propose an unconstrained global continuous optimization method based on tabu search
and harmony search to support the design of fuzzy linear regression (FLR) models. Tabu …

Fuzzy regression models have been applied to operational research (OR) applications such
as forecasting. Some of previous studies on fuzzy regression analysis obtain crisp …

A highly relevant topic in the actuarial literature is so-called “claim reserving” or “loss
reserving”, which involves estimating reserves to be provisioned for pending claims, as they …

Departing from a numerical method designed to solve ordinary differential equations, in this
manuscript we extend such approach to solve problems involving fuzzy partial differential …

In this paper we extend the classical chain-ladder claims reserving method using fuzzy
methods. Therefore, we derive new estimators for the claims development factors as well as …

Time–cost trade-off problems (TCT) are well-known in project management contents. This
approach normally applied for scheduling of a project especially where the project should …

Claims reserving is obviously necessary for representing future obligations of an insurance
company and selection of an accurate method is a major component of the overall claims …

El estudio tuvo como objetivo proponer un nuevo enfoque para el método chain-ladder
mediante el uso de Números Fuzzy Gaussianos. Por tanto, el texto introduce conceptos y …
