If x
is a vector of observed claims, for each element of x
the probability of ruin is
estimated with said element of x
left out. The resulting vector of ruin probabilities has the
same length as x
, and its standard error, properly rescaled, is used to approximate the
standard error of the estimator of the probability of ruin of x
.
This procedure is applied column-wise if x
is a matrix.
A numeric vector of length ncol(as.matrix(x))
.
The calculation of the jackknife standard error can be computationally intensive. In most cases the
computation time can be drastically reduced at the price of a slightly lower accuracy, viz. a higher
value for the interval
argument of ruinprob
