This study considers the forecasting of mortality rates in multiple populations. We propose a model that combines mortality forecasting and functional data analysis (FDA). Under the FDA framework, the mortality curve of each year is assumed to be a smooth function of age. As with most of the...

This paper proposes a new AR-sieve bootstrap approach on high-dimensional time series. The major challenge of classical bootstrap methods on high-dimensional time series is two-fold: the curse dimensionality and temporal dependence. To tackle such difficulty, we utilise factor modelling to...
