The maximum entropy mortality model: forecasting mortality using statistical moments

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...

Prediction of potential habitats of Astracantha gossypina (Fisch.) Using the maximum entropy model in regional scale

Astracantha gossypina (Fisch.) is one of the most important rangeland plants in the northeastern region of Iran and has a great role in soil conservation and the economy of ranchers. unreasonable uses and management of desire plant species usually led to species loss and the replacement of endemic and specialist species by invasive endemic or exotic species. This study was conducted to determin...

a time series model for assessing the trend and forecasting the road traffic accident mortality

conclusions there was a decreasing trend in the study and the future years. it seems that implementation of some interventions in the recent decade has had a positive effect on the decline of rta fatalities. nevertheless, there is still a need to pay more attention in order to prevent the occurrence and the mortalities related to traffic accidents. results the mean age of the victims was 37.22 ...
