Mortality calculator

This calculator takes a functional form for the force of mortality and outputs graphs of the survival curve and distribution of age at death in graphic form. The force of mortality, or hazard function, is a generally more useful way of analysing mortality data than looking at simple annual rates. We therefore use Longevitas for the analysis of pensioner- and annuitant-mortality experience inour consulting work. A paper describing this in detail can be found here.

Full documentation of the model structures used here can be found in the paper A handbook of parametric survival models for actuarial use, published in the Scandinavian Actuarial Journal.
