• Abstract: The study of mortality patterns is a popular research topic in many areas. We are particularly interested in mortality patterns among main causes of death associated with age-gender combinations. We use symbolic data analysis (SDA) and include three dimensions: age, gender, and patterns across main causes of death. In this study, we present an alternative method to identify clusters of EU countries with similar mortality patterns in the young population, while considering comprehensive information on the distribution of deaths among the main causes of death by different age-gender groups. We explore possible relationships between mortality patterns in the identified clusters and some other sociodemographic indicators. We use EU data of crude mortality rates from 2016, as the most recent complete data available.

  Imbalances in censoring and time horizons cause generative models to experience three new failure modes specific to survival analysis. We propose SurvivalGAN, a generative model that handles survival data by addressing the imbalance in the censoring and event horizons. We evaluate this method via extensive experiments on medical datasets.

This paper proposes a novel deep learning model to learn latent representations of biological aging in regard to subjects' morbidity and mortality.

  We propose a generative time-to-event model, SurvLatent ODE, which parameterizes a latent representation under irregularly sampled data. Our model then utilizes the latent representation to flexibly estimate survival times for multiple competing events without specifying shapes of event-specific hazard function. SurvLatent ODE outperforms the current clinical standard Khorana Risk scores for stratifying DVT risk groups.

  We examine the role that social media language can play in providing insights into community characteristics. We find that rates of mentioning pregnancy-related topics on Twitter predicts maternal mortality rates with higher accuracy than standard socioeconomic and risk variables. We then investigate psychological dimensions of community language, finding the use of less trustful, more stressed, and more negative affective language is significantly associated with higher mortality rates.
