Application of Machine Learning to Mortality Modeling and Forecasting
Risks, 2019 Estimation of future mortality rates still plays a central role among life insurers in pricing their products and managing longevity risk. In the literature on mortality modeling, a wide number of stochastic models have been proposed, most of them ...

Mortality, Redundancy, and Diversity in Stochastic Search
Physical Review Letters, 2015 We investigate a stochastic search process in one dimension under the competing roles of mortality, redundancy, and diversity of the searchers. This picture represents a toy model for the fertilization of an oocyte by sperm. A population of $N$ independent and mortal diffusing searchers all start at $x=L$ and attempt to reach the target at $x=0$.

Stochastic Epigenetic Mutations Influence Parkinson’s Disease Risk, Progression, and Mortality
Journal of Parkinson’s Disease, 2022 Background: Stochastic epigenetic mutations (SEM) reflect a deviation from normal site-specific methylation patterns. Epigenetic mutation load (EML) captures the accumulation of SEMs across an individual’s genome and may reflect dysfunction of the ...

Dynamic Behavior of an Interactive Mosquito Model under Stochastic Interference
Mathematics, 2022 For decades, mosquito-borne diseases such as dengue fever and Zika have posed serious threats to human health. Diverse mosquito vector control strategies with different advantages have been proposed by the researchers to solve the problem.

Exchanging uncertain mortality for a cost [PDF]
, 2013 We analyze a pooled annuity fund from a participant’s perspective by comparing it to a mortality-linked fund, a type of variable payout life annuity, that gives a return linked to the force of mortality but subject to a cost.
