Cause-of-Death Diversity From a Multiple-Cause Perspective in the United States

open access: yesDemography, 2023
Abstract Cause-of-death diversity captures the variability of deaths across causes and is an important marker of heterogeneity in a population's health. We contribute to the debate of cause-of-death diversity dynamics by following a novel multiple causes of death (MCOD) approach and applying it to the U.S.

Joint models for cause-of-death mortality in multiple populations

open access: yesAnnals of Actuarial Science, 2023
AbstractWe investigate jointly modelling age–year-specific rates of various causes of death in a multinational setting. We apply multi-output Gaussian processes (MOGPs), a spatial machine learning method, to smooth and extrapolate multiple cause-of-death mortality rates across several countries and both genders. To maintain flexibility and scalability,
