Aging of a giant: a stochastic population forecast for China, 2001-2050 [PDF]

open access: yes
This paper presents a stochastic population forecast for China with a special emphasis on population aging. Stochastic forecasting methods have the advantage of producing a projection of the future population including a probabilistic prediction interval.

Infant Mortality in Rural Bangladesh: State Dependence vs. Unobserved Heterogeneity

open access: yes
Using longitudinal data of the Health and Demographic Surveillance System (HDSS) in Matlab, Bangladesh, covering the time period 1982 – 2005, and exploiting dynamic panel data models, we analyze siblings’ death at infancy, controlling for unobserved ...

Modelling stochastic mortality for dependent lives

open access: yes
Stochastic mortality, i.e. modelling death arrival via a jump process with stochastic intensity, is gaining an increasing reputation as a way to represent mortality risk. This paper is a first attempt to model the mortality risk of couples of individuals,
