Machine Learning Techniques for Mortality Modeling
Philippe Deprez, Pavel V. Shevchenko, Mario V. Wüthrich
Various stochastic models have been proposed to estimate mortality rates. In this paper we illustrate how machine learning techniques allow us to analyze the quality of such mortal…
Construction of Directed Assortative Configuration Graphs
Philippe Deprez, Mario V. Wüthrich
Constructions of directed configuration graphs based on a given bi-degree distribution were introduced in random graph theory some years ago. These constructions lead to graphs whe…
Networks, Random Graphs and Percolation
Philippe Deprez, Mario V. Wüthrich
The theory of random graphs goes back to the late 1950s when Paul Erdős and Alfréd Rényi introduced the Erdős-Rényi random graph. Since then many models have been developed, and th…
Scale-Free Percolation in Continuum Space
Philippe Deprez, Mario V. Wüthrich
The study of real-life network modeling has become very popular in recent years. An attractive model is the scale-free percolation model on the lattice , , bec…
