Report

Image Recognition

A new SOA report examines how actuaries can use image recognition techniques to solve insurance problems. It looks at examples of how driver behavior can be assessed using image recognition. The report provides insights on these techniques that can improve customer service, facilitate data collection, and provide additional valuable information for pricing, reserving and risk management.
