This paper studies a long short-term memory (LSTM)-based coherent mortality forecasting method for developing countries … or regions. Many of such developing countries have experienced a rapid mortality decline over the past few decades …. However, their recent mortality development trend is not necessarily driven by the same factors as their long-term behavior …

This paper proposes a coherent multi-population approach to mortality forecasting for less developed countries. The … majority of these countries have witnessed faster mortality declines among the young and the working age populations during the … past few decades, whereas in the more developed countries, the contemporary mortality declines have been more substantial …

differences in population age structure. In this paper, COVID-19 mortality rates are calculated for each age group by dividing the … number of COVID-19 deaths by the underlying population. The resulting age-mortality curves are flatter in countries with … lower incomes. In HICs, the COVID-19 mortality rate for those ages 70-79 is 12.6 times the rate for those ages 50-59. In …
