Comment on We Found Insurance Fraud in Our Crash Dataparent

Comments

I think “in the exact same way with all the known indicators of insurance fraud” adds a couple orders of magnitude to the expected by-chance odds.

Well they do say they calculate propensity scores, but the whole language of the blog post is very hand-wavy. Warning over and over again that something is not causal proof, and then dramaticizing it as if it were proof is just unprofessional.

If you have a fraud model, just show the model and the data and the validation - everything else is marketing fluff.
