Investigating Mortality Uncertainty Using the Block Bootstrap
This paper proposes a block bootstrap method for measuring mortality risk under the Lee-Carter model framework. In order to take account of all sources of risk the process risk, the parameter risk, and the model risk properly, a block bootstrap is needed to cope with the spatial dependence found in the residuals. As a result, the prediction intervals we obtain for life expectancy are more accur...
متن کاملUncertainty Analysis of a GHG Emission Model Output Using the Block Bootstrap and Monte Carlo Simulation
Uncertainty analysis of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions is becoming increasingly necessary in order to obtain a more accurate estimation of their quantities. The Monte Carlo simulation (MCS) and non-parametric block bootstrap (BB) methods were tested to estimate the uncertainty of GHG emissions from the consumption of feedstuffs and energy by dairy cows. In addition, the contribution to variance...
متن کاملSelecting the Most Economic Project under Uncertainty Using Bootstrap Technique and Fuzzy Simulation
This article, by leaving pre-determined membership function of a fuzzy set which is a basic assumption for such subject, will try to propose a hybrid technique to select the most economic project among alternative projects in fuzziness interest rates condition. In this way, net present worth (NPW) would be the economic indicator. This article tries to challenge the assumption of large sample si...
متن کاملOn Using Bootstrap Approach for Uncertainty Estimation
Computer-Intensive methods for estimation assessment provide valuable information concerning the adequacy of applied probabilistic models. The bootstrap method is an extensive computational approach to uncertainty estimation based on resampling and statistical estimation. It is a powerful tool, especially when only a small data set is used to predict the behaviour of systems or processes. This ...
متن کاملThe Block - Block Bootstrap : Improved Asymptotic Refinements
1 The asymptotic refinements attributable to the block bootstrap for time series are not as large as those of the nonparametric iid bootstrap or the parametric bootstrap. One reason is that the independence between the blocks in the block bootstrap sample does not mimic the dependence structure of the original sample. This is the join-point problem. In this paper, we propose a method of solving...
