Exploring the Health State of a Population by Dynamic Modeling Methods

Exploring the Health State of a Population by Dynamic Modeling Methods by Christos H. Skiadas, Charilaos Skiadas.

This book introduces and applies the stochastic modeling techniques and the first exit time theory in demography through describing the theory related to the health state of a population and the introduced health state function. The book provides the derivation and classification of the human develo...
