Bayesian Poisson Mortality Projections with Incomplete Data
Rui Gong, Xiaoqian Sun, Leping Liu +1
The missing data problem pervasively exists in statistical applications. Even as simple as the count data in mortality projections, it may not be available for certain age-and-year…
A Bayesian Spatial Modeling Approach to Mortality Forecasting
Zhen Liu, Xiaoqian Sun, Yu-Bo Wang
This paper extends Bayesian mortality projection models for multiple populations considering the stochastic structure and the effect of spatial autocorrelation among the observatio…
Bayesian Poisson Log-normal Model with Regularized Time Structure for Mortality Projection of Multi-population
Zhen Liu, Xiaoqian Sun, Leping Liu +1
The improvement of mortality projection is a pivotal topic in the diverse branches related to insurance, demography, and public policy. Motivated by the thread of Lee-Carter relate…
Bayes Factor Consistency for One-way Random Effects Model
Min Wang, Xiaoqian Sun
In this paper, we consider Bayesian hypothesis testing for the balanced one-way random effects model. A special choice of the prior formulation for the ratio of variance components…
