The data set is taken from table 1.1 Kuang and Nielsen (2020). Data are for US Casualty data from the XL Group. They are gross paid and reported loss and allocated loss adjustment expense in 1000 USD.

The data set is in "CL"-format.

response

matrix of paid amounts, incremental

dose

NULL.

data.format

logical. Equal to "CL".

age1

numeric. Equal to 1.

per1

NULL. Not needed when data.format="CL"

coh1

numeric. Equal to 1997.

unit

numeric. Equal to 1997.

per.zero

NULL. Not needed when data.format="CL"

per.max

NULL. Not needed when data.format="CL"
