Hugh Miller

Experience:

Over the past few years at Taylor Fry, Hugh has been involved in many projects in the actuarial and analytic teams. His recent experience includes:

• Valuation work in general insurance, including the assessment of workers' compensation portfolios, short and long-tailed reinsurance lines, as well as commercial insurance products;
• Building a model for an Australian government department to understand which of their customers they should review as well as the financial impact such reviews. Techniques involved traditional generalised linear models as well as more sophisticated data mining techniques;
• Building pricing models for commercial insurance lines. This involved understanding pricing structures and modelling risks associated with various policy factors.

Hugh is an active researcher in both statistics and actuarial topics, whose main interests include:

• statistical learning and prediction,
• analysing high-dimensional datasets, and
• developing and extending the use of generalised linear models.
