Mortality and life expectancy forecast for (comparatively) high mortality countries [PDF]
The Lee-Carter method and its later variants are widely accepted extrapolative methods for forecasting mortality and life expectancy in industrial countries due to their simplicity and availability of high quality long time series data.We compared and contrasted mortality forecasting models for higher mortality regimes that lack long time series data ...
