Abstract
Predictive modeling has been widely used for insurance rate making. In this paper, we focus on insurance claim count data and address their common issues with more flexible modeling techniques. In particular, we study the zero-inflated and hurdle-generalized Poisson and negative binomial distributions in a functional form for modeling insurance claim count data. It is shown that these models are useful in addressing the problem of excess zeros and over-dispersion of the claim count variable. In addition, we show that including the exposure as a covariate in both the zero and the count part of the model is an effective approach to incorporating exposure information in zero-inflated and hurdle models. We illustrate the effectiveness and versatility of the introduced models using three real datasets. The results suggest their promising applications in insurance risk classification and beyond.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
