Random cohort effects and age groups dependency structure for mortality modelling and forecasting: Mixed-effects time-series model approach
There have been significant efforts devoted to solving the longevity risk given that a continuous growth in population ageing has become a severe issue for many developed countries over the past few decades. The Cairns-Blake-Dowd (CBD) model, which incorporates cohort effects parameters in its parsimonious design, is one of the most well-known approaches for mortality modelling at higher ages and longevity risk. This article proposes a novel mixed-effects time-series approach for mortality modelling and forecasting with considerations of age groups dependence and random cohort effects parameters. The proposed model can disclose more mortality data information and provide a natural quantification of the model parameters uncertainties with no pre-specified constraint required for estimating the cohort effects parameters. The abilities of the proposed approach are demonstrated through two applications with empirical male and female mortality data. The proposed approach shows remarkable improvements in terms of forecast accuracy compared to the CBD model in the short-, mid-and long-term forecasting using mortality data of several developed countries in the numerical examples.

Adaptive Clinical Trials: Exploiting Sequential Patient Recruitment and Allocation
Randomized Controlled Trials (RCTs) are the gold standard for comparing the effectiveness of a new treatment to the current one (the control). Most RCTs allocate the patients to the treatment group and the control group …
Weighted Sum-of-Trees Model for Clustered Data
Clustered data, which arise when observations are nested within groups, are incredibly common in clinical, education, and social science research. Traditionally, a linear mixed model, which includes random effects to acc…
Learning Structures of Bayesian Networks for Variable Groups
Bayesian networks, and especially their structures, are powerful tools for representing conditional independencies and dependencies between random variables. In applications where related variables form a priori known gr…
Explaining Knock-on Effects of Bias Mitigation
In machine learning systems, bias mitigation approaches aim to make outcomes fairer across privileged and unprivileged groups. Bias mitigation methods work in different ways and have known "waterfall" effects, e.g., miti…
