An extension of relational methods in mortality estimations
نویسنده
چکیده
Actuaries and demographers have a long tradition of using collateral data to improve mortality estimates. Three main approaches have been used to accomplish the improvement — mortality laws, model life tables, and relational methods. The present paper introduces a regression model that incorporates all of the beneficial principles from each of these approaches. The model is demonstrated on mortality data pertaining to various groups of Swedish people holding a life insurance policy. 1 Department of Epidemiology and Surveillance, National Institute of Occupational Health, Lersø Parkallé 105, DK-2100 Copenhagen Ø, Denmark.

Apply Uncertainty in Document-Oriented Database (MongoDB) Using F-XML
As moving to big data world where data is increasing in unstructured way with high velocity, there is a need of data-store to store this bundle amount of data. Traditionally, relational databases are used which are now not compatible to handle this large amount of data, so it is needed to move on to non-relational data-stores. In the current study, we have proposed an extension of the Mongo...

متن کاملExtension of Logic regression to Longitudinal data: Transition Logic Regression
Logic regression is a generalized regression and classification method that is able to make Boolean combinations as new predictive variables from the original binary variables. Logic regression was introduced for case control or cohort study with independent observations. Although in various studies, correlated observations occur due to different reasons, logic regression have not been studi...
