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 اولModel Selection for Semiparametric Bayesian Models with Application to Overdispersion
In analyzing complicated data, we are often unwilling or not confident to impose a parametric model for the data-generating structure. One important example is data analysis for proportional or count data with overdispersion. The obvious advantage of assuming full parametric models is that one can resort to likelihood analyses, for instance, to use AIC or BIC to choose the most appropriate regr...
متن کاملA Bayesian forecasting model: predicting U.S. male mortality.
This article presents a Bayesian approach to forecast mortality rates. This approach formalizes the Lee-Carter method as a statistical model accounting for all sources of variability. Markov chain Monte Carlo methods are used to fit the model and to sample from the posterior predictive distribution. This paper also shows how multiple imputations can be readily incorporated into the model to han...
متن کاملBayesian Forecasting
Bayesian forecasting is a natural product of a Bayesian approach to inference. The Bayesian approach in general requires explicit formulation of a model, and conditioning on known quantities, in order to draw inferences about unknown ones. In Bayesian forecasting, one simply takes a subset of the unknown quantities to be future values of some variables of interest. This paper presents the princ...
متن کاملBayesian Forecasting
Bayesian Forecasting encompasses statistical theory and methods in time series analysis and time series forecasting, particularly approaches using dynamic and state space models, though the underlying concepts and theoretical foundation relate to probability modelling and inference more generally. This entry focuses speciically in the time series and dynamic modelling domain, with mention of re...
