  1. 1. Double Machine Learning for Insurance Price Optimization

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för industriell teknik och management (ITM)

    Author : Jakob Kristiansson; [2023]
    Keywords : DML; Double Machine Learning; Price Optimization; Insurance Pricing; DML; Dubbel Maskininlärning; Prisoptimering; Försäkringsprissättning;

    Abstract : This thesis examines how recent advances in debaised machine learning can be used for estimating price elasticities of demand within the automotive insurance field. Traditional methods such as generalized linear model (GLM) to estimate demand has no way of ensuring there are no biases in the underlying data selection, especially when the confounding variables are many.
