How Has the Health of the United States Population Changed? Evidence From Biomarkers

open access: yesHealth Economics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Population health is a central input into social welfare, but health itself is complex and multidimensional. Mapping multiple dimensions of health into a single population health index may require strong assumptions about how to aggregate and weight across dimensions.

Population Development of the Rhine-Neckar Metropolitan Area:
A Stochastic Population Forecast on the Basis of Functional Data Analysis

open access: yesComparative Population Studies, 2012
Stochastic population forecasts are gaining popularity in these times of demographic change, as compared with the scenario technique frequently used for projections, they provide important additional information: the forecasted population lies within a ...

Globalization and the Benefits of Education: Evidence From the Double Burden of Malnutrition

open access: yesHealth Economics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper investigates how rising women's education and exposure to economic and social globalization jointly shape the Double Burden of Malnutrition (DBM), defined as the coexistence of maternal overweight and child stunting within the same household.

Autocorrelation in Stochastic Models of Dutch Mortality Rates

open access: yesMaRBLe, 2013
This paper studies different stochastic mortality models with respect to its underlying assumptions. The Lee-Carter model, the rank-p SVD approximation model, the Weighted Least Squares model and the Poisson Bilinear model are discussed and applied to a Dutch data set.

A multilevel perspective on MSH6‐associated Lynch syndrome: Integrating molecular, biological, and clinical insights

open access: yesInternational Journal of Cancer, EarlyView.
Abstract Lynch syndrome (LS) is the most common hereditary colorectal cancer syndrome, caused by a germline pathogenic variant in one of the mismatch repair (MMR) genes. Among these, MSH6‐associated LS represents a distinct subtype with unique molecular and clinical characteristics.

Stylized Facts and Discrete Stochastic Volatility Models [PDF]

open access: yes
This paper highlights the ability of the discrete stochastic volatility models to predict some important properties of the data, i.e. leptokurtic distribution of the returns, slowly decaying autocorrelation function of squared returns, the Taylor effect ...

Artificial intelligence‐driven bioinformatics: From analytical pipelines to model‐centered biological discovery

open access: yesiMetaOmics, EarlyView.
AI‐driven bioinformatics is best viewed as an emerging model‐centered discovery framework in which learned representations increasingly support prediction, intervention design, and workflow orchestration, while classical pipelines remain essential for validation and reproducibility.

WHOLE LIFE INSURANCE UTILIZING THE COMMISSIONERS METHOD AND THE VASICEK INTEREST RATE MODEL FOR PREMIUM RESERVE ANALYSIS

open access: yesBarekeng
Premium reserves play a vital role in ensuring that insurance firms can meet their future obligations to policyholders. Traditional fixed-rate approaches often fail to reflect market volatility, leading to potential misestimations.

StMoMo: Stochastic Mortality Modeling in R

open access: yes, 2018
In this paper we mirror the framework of generalized (non-)linear models to define the family of generalized age-period-cohort stochastic mortality models which encompasses the vast majority of stochastic mortality projection models proposed to date, including the well-known Lee-Carter and Cairns-Blake-Dowd models.
