Actuarial Mathematics and Life-Table Statistics
This book is a course of lectures on the mathematics of actuarial science. The idea behind the lectures is as far as possible to deduce interesting material on contingent present values and life tables directly from calculus and common-sense notions, illustrated through word problems. Both the Interest Theory and Probability related to life tables are treated as wonderful concrete applications ...

متن کاملLife Table Analysis using Weighted Survey Data
Formulas for constructing valid pointwise confidence bands for survival distributions, estimated using unequal probability samples, are derived. In addition, a test statistic for comparing estimated survival distributions from several groups is proposed. The methodology can be applied when survival times are subject to an independent censoring mechanism. The methods are illustrated using data f...
متن کاملDevelopmentally plausible learning of word categories from distributional statistics
In this paper we evaluate a mechanism for the learning of word categories from distributional information against criteria of psychological plausibility. We elaborate on the ideas developed by Redington et al. (1998) by embedding the mechanism in an existing model of language acquisition (MOSAIC) and gradually expanding the contexts it has access to in a developmentally plausible way. In line w...
متن کاملDistributional Effects of Frequency 1 Running Head: Distributional Effects of Frequency Distributional Effects of Word Frequency on Eye Fixation Durations
Much recent research using word recognition paradigms such as lexical decision and speeded pronunciation has investigated how a range of variables affect the location and shape of response time distributions, using both parametric and non-parametric techniques. In the present article, we explore the distributional effects of a word frequency manipulation on fixation durations in normal reading,...
