title: 'actuarialfitdist: Actuarial Severity Fitting with Limits and Deductibles'
version: 0.2.3
abstract: 'Fits actuarial claim severity distributions to ground-up loss data while
  accounting for deductible truncation, policy-limit censoring, observation weights,
  optional severity scaling variables, and fixed parameters. Supports single-family
  and spliced body-tail models, candidate-model comparison, limited expected values,
  loss elimination ratios, increased limits factors, deductible and limit rating factors,
  valuation or depreciation adjustments, simulation, diagnostics, and uncertainty
  estimation. The package is designed for property and casualty actuarial applications
  in which analysts fit ground-up severity and translate the fitted distribution into
  pricing factors for limits, deductibles, and valuation provisions. For background
  on statistical severity modeling, see Klugman, Panjer, and Willmot (2019, ISBN:9781119523789),
  "Loss Models: From Data to Decisions", 5th edition.'
