Forecasting Population-Level Mortality

Ugofilippo Basellini; in Zusammenarbeit mit Carlo Giovanni Camarda (French National Institute for Demographic Studies, Paris, Frankreich)

This project generates novel insights into the analysis and forecast of population-level human mortality by introducing new statistical methods based on age-at-death distributions and the decomposition of the mortality age-pattern.  Ausführliche Beschreibung

Beobachtete und prognostizierte Sterberaten für Schweizer Männer

Actual, estimated and forecast death rates by Three-Component smooth Lee-Carter model over age (left) and time (right) on a log scale for Swiss males. Unlike in the original Lee-Carter method, mortality forecasts over ages are smooth, and rates of mortality improvement over time are not constant. © Camarda and Basellini (2021)
