Stochastic Period and Cohort Effect State-Space Mortality Models Incorporating Demographic Factors via Probabilistic Robust Principal Components

open access: yesRisks, 2017
In this study we develop a multi-factor extension of the family of Lee-Carter stochastic mortality models. We build upon the time, period and cohort stochastic model structure to extend it to include exogenous observable demographic features that can be ...

Stability of positive equilibrium of a Nicholson blowflies model with stochastic perturbations

open access: yesElectronic Journal of Qualitative Theory of Differential Equations, 2020
This paper is concerned with the stability problem of the positive equilibrium of a Nicholson's blowflies model with nonlinear density-dependent mortality rate subject to stochastic perturbations.

Stochastic modeling of assets and liabilities with mortality risk [PDF]

open access: yesScandinavian Actuarial Journal, 2021
This paper describes a general approach for stochastic modeling of assets returns and liability cash-flows of a typical pensions insurer. On the asset side, we model the investment returns on equities and various classes of fixed-income instruments including short- and long-maturity fixed-rate bonds as well as index-linked and corporate bonds.

Mortality limits used in wind energy impact assessment underestimate impacts of wind farms on bird populations

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, 2020
The consequences of bird mortality caused by collisions with wind turbines are increasingly receiving attention. So‐called acceptable mortality limits of populations, that is, those that assume that 1%–5% of additional mortality and the potential ...

A Bayesian Approach to Developing a Stochastic Mortality Model for China [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of the Royal Statistical Society Series A: Statistics in Society, 2019
SummaryStochastic mortality models have a wide range of applications. They are particularly important for analysing Chinese mortality, which is subject to rapid and uncertain changes. However, owing to data-related problems, stochastic modelling of Chinese mortality has not been given adequate attention.
