LifeMetrics - Software
Note: New Excel version now available
The LifeMetrics toolkit includes a set of computer based models that can be used in forecasting mortality and longevity. These models were evaluated in the research paper, “A quantitative comparison of eight stochastic mortality models using data from England & Wales and the United States.”
In order to run these models ‘R’, a free statistical software package, is available from www.r-project.org. The software required to run the forecast models is available for download along with a user guide.
The LifeMetrics forecasting software was written by Professor Andrew Cairns and a new user friendly Excel interface has been developed by the LifeMetrics team. Unless otherwise specified, neither the data providers nor any third party endorses LifeMetrics.
