plot.trace.plots

The coda for the node(s): first dimension indicates the node; second is iterations; third is chains.

coda

A character vector equal in length to the first dim of coda representing the names of the nodes (these are used to label the trace plots).

names

A rather generic function to plot (multiple) trace plots in one call on one graph. Intended for internal use only.

Bayesian analysis of loss development on insurance triangles or 'BALD' is a Bayesian model of developing aggregate loss triangles in property casualty insurance. This actuarial model makes use of a heteroskedastic and skewed t-likelihood with endogenous degrees of freedom, employs model averaging by means of Reversible Jump MCMC, and accommodates a structural break in the path of the consumption of benefits. Further, the model is capable of incorporating expert information in the calendar year effect. In an accompanying vignette, this model is applied to two widely studied General Liability and Auto Bodily Injury Liability loss triangles. For a description of the methodology, see Frank A. Schmid (2010) <doi:10.2139/ssrn.1501706>.
