An Actuarial Survey of Statistical Models for Decrement and Transition Data, III. Counting Process Models

British Actuarial Journal, 1996, vol. 2, issue 3, 703-726

Abstract: Counting processes and their compensators are introduced at a heuristic level. The martingale property of stochastic integrals with respect to a compensated counting process leads to moment estimates and asymptotic normal distributions for statistics arising in multiple state, non-parametric and semi-parametric models. The place of survival models in actuarial education is discussed.
