Abstract

We assume that we have M candidate insurance models for describing a process. The models considered consist of a risk process driven by right-constant, finite-state spaces, jump processes. Based on observing the history of the risk process, we propose dynamics whose solutions indicate the likelihoods of each candidate model.
