Mortality in high ages
Malá, Kateřina ; Mazurová, Lucie (advisor) ; Cipra, Tomáš (referee)
In this thesis, we study modelling of mortality in high ages by several approaches. Some of mentioned models take into account the phenomenon of mortality deceleration. Further, we present several ways of estimating of exposed to risk in (almost) extinct cohorts. We focus especially on the survivor ratio method but we also mention the MD method and the DG method. Finally, we perform a numerical study.
The analysis of cohort mortality at old aged people
Horníková, Andrea ; Mazouch, Petr (advisor) ; Fiala, Tomáš (referee)
The objective of this thesis is to find patterns trends and assumptions for mortality vs. age prediction. Based on the analysis of trends in the already extinct cohorts, the most suitable models for estimating the future development of mortality among surviving cohorts are selected. This thesis compares real data extinct cohorts with balanced data Gompertz-Makehamovy function. The research and analysis is focused on the specifics of cohort mortality from the age of 90. The last part of this thesis illustrates comparison between real data of extinct cohorts with DeRaS model outputs. The selection of Kannisto and Thatcher as the optimal model is presented in the form of graphical outputs indicating the cohort life expectancy of men and women aged 90 years.
