mortality forecasting based on lee-carter model
over the past decades a number of approaches have been applied for forecasting mortality. in 1992, a new method for long-run forecast of the level and age pattern of mortality was published by lee and carter. this method was welcomed by many authors so it was extended through a wider class of generalized, parametric and nonlinear model. this model represents one of the most influential recent d...
15 صفحه اولTuberculosis in Cape Town: An age-structured transmission model.
BACKGROUND Tuberculosis (TB) is the leading cause of death in South Africa. The burden of disease varies by age, with peaks in TB notification rates in the HIV-negative population at ages 0-5, 20-24, and 45-49 years. There is little variation between age groups in the rates in the HIV-positive population. The drivers of this age pattern remain unknown. METHODS We developed an age-structured s...
متن کاملAn Agent Based Computational Economics Model for Creative Destruction
We propose agent based computational economic model (ACE) that attempts to capture Schumpeterian economic dynamics. We posit an evolutionary artificial society with interactive and heterogeneous trade agents that are knowledge based and that have bounded rationally. We diverge from previous work in that we view the economy as a complex adaptive ecosystem of firms that continuously innovate and ...

متن کاملAn age-structured continuum model for myxobacteria
Myxobacteria are social bacteria, that can glide in 2D and form counter-propagating, interacting waves. Here we present a novel age-structured, continuous macroscopic model for the movement of myxobacteria. The derivation is based on microscopic interaction rules that can be formulated as a particle-based model and set within the SOH (Self-Organized Hydrodynamics) framework. The strength of thi...
