We present a new way to model age-specific demographic variables with the example of age-specific mortality in the U … jointly with the latent variables underlying mortality of all age classes. In contrast to previous models, a similar … forecasts for particular age classes. A structural analysis of the relationship between age-specific mortality and covariates is …

Multi-population mortality forecasting has become an increasingly important area in actuarial science and demography …, as a means to avoid long-run divergence in mortality projection. This paper aims to establish a unified state …-space Bayesian framework to model, estimate and forecast mortality rates in a multi-population context. In this regard, we …

China has experienced large improvements in mortality rates, but there remain substantial variations at the provincial … level. This paper develops new models to project mortality at both the national and provincial levels in China. We propose … comprehensive database containing mortality data for 31 provinces over the period 1982–2010. The baseline two-level model with a …
