✦ Synopsis


This note propOsee a new model for summarising data on survival distribution. A simple graphical method (or equivalently a linear-regression-based method) for estimation of parameters is given.

The model is shown to describe adequately data on Survivorship of Starling Birds reported by LACK (1943) and data on power generators reported by DHILLON (1981). A comment is added to

illustrate how one can obtain a goodness of fit statistic which has a chi-squared distributions.

## Abstract In order to avoid β€˜frailty’ in deterministic assumptions concerning survival law, in this paper stochastic volatility in the force of mortality is considered. In particular, mortality rates are studied by means of a stochastic model of CIR type. A method for estimating its parameters is
