A particularly interesting model was proposed by Mack (1993, 1994a,b): Under the assumptions of his model, Mack proved that the chain ladder predictors of non-observable aggregate claims are unbiased, and Schmidt and Schnaus (1996) proved that the chain ladder predictor for the first non-observable calendar year is also optimal in the sense that it minimizes expected squared error loss over a wide class of unbiased predictors. In the present paper, it is shown that optimality fails for the chain ladder predictor for the second non-observable calendar year

Handmade chain stitch embroidery does not require that the needle pass through more than one layer of fabric.

chain reaction: (nuclear) a self-sustaining fission process caused by the production of neutrons that proceed to split other nuclei (21 6)
chain reaction: A self-sustaining reaction in which one reaction event stimulates one or more additional reaction events to keep the process going
chain reaction: A reaction in which the material or energy that starts the reaction is also one of the products and can cause similar reactions
chain reaction: (also Nuclear chain reaction) 1 A reaction that stimulates its own repetition 2 For example, nuclear reaction occurs when neutrons released from a split atom such as a uranium-235 (U235) nucleus go on to fission other nuclei This reaction produces additional neutrons that cause more fissions, which release still more neutrons to cause even more fissions, which release even more neutrons, and so on See Fission
chain reaction: A reaction which, once started, will produce a material or substance necessary to continue the reaction An example is nuclear fission Once a fission reaction is started, neutrons are released, which cause more nuclei to undergo fission, which release more neutrons, and so on
chain reaction: a series of chemical reactions in which the product of one is a reactant in the next
chain reaction: A chain reaction is a series of events, each of which causes the next. The powder immediately ignited and set off a chain reaction of explosions. Process yielding products that initiate further processes of the same kind. Nuclear chain reactions are a series of nuclear fissions initiated by neutrons produced in a preceding fission. A critical mass, large enough to allow more than one fission-produced neutron to be captured, is necessary for the chain reaction to be self-sustaining. Uncontrolled chain reactions, as in an atomic bomb, occur when large numbers of neutrons are present and the reactions multiply very quickly. Nuclear reactors control their reactions through the careful distribution of the fissionable material and insertion of neutron-absorbing materials
chain reaction: A self-sustaining reaction in which one reaction event stimulates one or more additional reaction events to keep the process going
