A Course in Credibility Theory and its Applications
It covers the subject of Credibility Theory extensively and includes most aspects of this topic from the simplest case to the most general dynamic model. The first four chapters contain plenty of material The book therefore treats explicitly the tasks which the actuary encounters in his daily work such as estimation of loss ratios, claim frequencies and claim sizes. The models are worked out in detail (including the estimation of structural parameters) so that they can immediately be applied in practice. Most exercises are based on real insurance data and real situations from practice and many of them have the characteristics of a case study. The extension to practical problems arising from the general area of finance is often quite straightforward. This book deserves a place on the bookshelf of every actuary and mathematician who works, teaches or does research in the area of insurance and finance.for a first course on Credibility.
3rd Kuala Lumpur International Conference on Biomedical Engineering 2006 ; Biomed 2006, 11-14 December 2006, Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia
The Kuala Lumpur International Conference on Biomedical Engineering (Biomed 2006) was held from 11 to 14 December 2006 at the Palace of the Golden Horses, Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. This international conference was jointly organised by the Department of Biomedical Engineering, University of Malaya, Malaysia; Department of Biomedical Engineering, Inje University, Korea; and Malaysian Society of Medical and Biological Engineering.

3D Radiative Transfer in Cloudy Atmospheres
Assessing developments in three-dimensional cloud radiation, this volume treats two main application areas: the impact of clouds on the Earth's radiation budget, and remote observation of clouds. It is suitable for graduate students, researchers, and also for those interested in cloud-radiation processes in the solar and infrared spectral regions.
