1. Comparison of mortality rate models for current health diseases
Master-uppsats, Mälardalens högskola/Akademin för utbildning, kultur och kommunikationSammanfattning : In this research, we compare different models, that are used to model the mortality rate curve, to model different deaths caused by certain diseases. In this comparison we increase the complexity of the models, starting with the Gompertz model, to later reduce the complexity fixing some parameters depending on the error. .. LÄS MER
2. Comparison of mortality rate forecasting using the Second Order Lee–Carter method with different mortality models
Master-uppsats, Mälardalens högskola/Akademin för utbildning, kultur och kommunikationSammanfattning : Mortality information is very important for national planning and health of a country. Mortality rate forecasting is a basic contribution for the projection of financial improvement of pension plans, well-being and social strategy planning. LÄS MER
3. Non-linear Curve Fitting
Magister-uppsats, Mälardalens högskola/Akademin för utbildning, kultur och kommunikationSammanfattning : The work done in this thesis is to examine various methods for curve fitting. Linear least squares and non-linear least squares will be described and compared, and the Newton method, Gauss--Newton method and Levenberg--Marquardt method will be applied to example problems. ..

4. Application of a power-exponential function based model to mortality rates forecasting
Master-uppsats, Mälardalens högskola/Akademin för utbildning, kultur och kommunikationSammanfattning : De modellering van een wet of mortaliteit heeft een consequente interesse van een grote meerderheid van onderzoekers en vele modellen door de jaren is voorgesteld. The first aim of this thesis is to systematically evaluate a selection of models --- Modified Perks, Heligman-Pollard and Power-exponential --- to determine their relative strengths and weaknesses with regard to forecasting the mortality rate using the Lee-Carter model.

5. Comparison of prices of life insurances using different mortality rates models
Master-uppsats, Mälardalens högskola/Akademin för utbildning, kultur och kommunikationSammanfattning : Capturing mortality became a crucial modelling problem throughout the years due to the raising demand of life insurances and annuities. Fitting three models, namely, logistic, Heligman– Pollard HP4 and power–exponential model, to real life data shows that latter two models represent the actual data quite well. LÄS MER
