生命表死亡人数建模与预测的加权成分函数型数据分析AI 解读

Age-specific life-table death counts observed over time are examples of densities. Non-negativity and summability are constraints that sometimes require modifications of standard linear statistical methods. The centered log-ratio transformation presents a mapping from a constrained to a less constrained space. With a time series of densities, forecasts are more relevant to the recent data than the data from the distant past. We introduce a weighted compositional functional…

为死亡年龄分布构造预测区间AI 解读

We introduce a model-agnostic procedure to construct prediction intervals for the age distribution of deaths. The age distribution of deaths is an example of constrained data, which are nonnegative and have a constrained integral. A centered log-ratio transformation and a cumulative distribution function transformation are used to remove the two constraints, where the latter transformation can also handle the presence of zero counts. Our general procedure divides data…

通过 α 变换预测生命表死亡人数的年龄分布AI 解读

We introduce a compositional power transformation, known as an α-transformation, to model and forecast a time series of life-table death counts, possibly with zero counts observed at older ages. As a generalisation of the isometric log-ratio transformation (i.e., α = 0), the α transformation relies on the tuning parameter α, which can be determined in a data-driven manner. Using the Australian age-specific period life-table death counts from 1921 to 2020, the α…
