Integrating uncertainty in time series population forecasts: An illustration using a simple projection model

Abel, Guy J.; Bijak, Jakub; Forster, Jonathon J.; Raymer, James; Smith, Peter W. F.; Wong, Jackie S. T.

Description

Background: Population forecasts are widely used for public policy purposes. Methods to quantify the uncertainty in forecasts tend to ignore model uncertainty and to be based on a single model. Objective: In this paper, we use Bayesian time series models
