In order to evaluate whether this tendency will continue, a Bayesian age‐period‐cohort (APC) model was applied using the National Vital Statistics data from 1952 to 2001.

WAVELET-BASED FEATURE EXTRACTION FOR MORTALITY PROJECTION
AbstractWavelet theory is known to be a powerful tool for compressing and processing time series or images. It consists in projecting a signal on an orthonormal basis of functions that are chosen in order to provide a sparse representation of the data. The first part of this article focuses on smoothing mortality curves by wavelets shrinkage.
