Life Expectancy of the World Population

The dataset from Worldometer provides a ranked list of countries based on life expectancy at birth, which represents the average number of years a newborn is expected to live under current mortality rates. It includes global, regional, and country-specific life expectancy figures, with separate data for males and females. The dataset highlights disparities in longevity across nations, with countries like Hong Kong, Japan, and South Korea having the highest life expectancies. This data serves as a key indicator of public health, quality of life, and healthcare effectiveness, offering valuable insights for policymakers, researchers, and global health organizations.

Data Analysis & Machine Learning Approaches for Life Expectancy Data

Data Analysis Approaches Life expectancy data can be analyzed using descriptive statistics (mean, variance, distribution) and correlation analysis to identify relationships with factors like GDP, healthcare, and education. Time series analysis helps track longevity trends over time, while clustering techniques (e.g., K-Means) group countries with similar patterns. Additionally, geospatial analysis can visualize regional disparities in life expectancy.

Machine Learning Models For prediction, linear and multiple regression models estimate life expectancy based on socioeconomic indicators, while polynomial regression captures non-linear trends. Decision trees and Random Forests classify countries into high- and low-life expectancy groups. Deep learning techniques like neural networks (ANNs) can model complex relationships, while LSTMs are useful for time-series forecasting.

For pattern detection, K-Means clustering groups countries based on life expectancy trends, and DBSCAN identifies anomalies. Principal Component Analysis (PCA) helps in feature selection, improving model efficiency. These methods provide insights into longevity trends, helping policymakers and researchers improve public health strategies.

Effect of suicide rates on life expectancy dataset

Abstract
In 2015, approximately 55 million people died worldwide, of which 8 million committed suicide. In the USA, one of the main causes of death is the aforementioned suicide, therefore, this experiment is dealing with the question of how much suicide rates affects the statistics of average life expectancy.
The experiment takes two datasets, one with the number of suicides and life expectancy in the second one and combine data into one dataset. Subsequently, I try to find any patterns and correlations among the variables and perform statistical test using simple regression to confirm my assumptions.

Data

The experiment uses two datasets - WHO Suicide Statistics[1] and WHO Life Expectancy[2], which were firstly appropriately preprocessed. The final merged dataset to the experiment has 13 variables, where country and year are used as index: Country, Year, Suicides number, Life expectancy, Adult Mortality, which is probability of dying between 15 and 60 years per 1000 population, Infant deaths, which is number of Infant Deaths per 1000 population, Alcohol, which is alcohol, recorded per capita (15+) consumption, Under-five deaths, which is number of under-five deaths per 1000 population, HIV/AIDS, which is deaths per 1 000 live births HIV/AIDS, GDP, which is Gross Domestic Product per capita, Population, Income composition of resources, which is Human Development Index in terms of income composition of resources, and Schooling, which is number of years of schooling.

This dataset contains replication files for "The Association Between Income and Life Expectancy in the United States, 2001-2014" by Augustin Bergeron, Raj Chetty, David Cutler, Benjamin Scuderi, Michael Stepner, and Nicholas Turner. For more information, see https://opportunityinsights.org/paper/lifeexpectancy/. A summary of the related publication follows. How can we reduce socioeconomic disparities in health outcomes? Although it is well known that there are significant differences in health and longevity between income groups, debate remains about the magnitudes and determinants of these differences. We use new data from 1.4 billion anonymous earnings and mortality records to construct more precise estimates of the relationship between income and life expectancy at the national level than was feasible in prior work. We then construct new local area (county and metro area) estimates of life expectancy by income group and identify factors that are associated with higher levels of life expectancy for low-income individuals. Our findings show that disparities in life expectancy are not inevitable. There are cities throughout America — from New York to San Francisco to Birmingham, AL — where gaps in life expectancy are relatively small or are narrowing over time. Replicating these successes more broadly will require targeted local efforts, focusing on improving health behaviors among the poor in cities such as Las Vegas and Detroit. Our findings also imply that federal programs such as Social Security and Medicare are less redistributive than they might appear because low-income individuals obtain these benefits for significantly fewer years than high-income individuals, especially in cities like Detroit. Going forward, the challenge is to understand the mechanisms that lead to better health and longevity for low-income individuals in some parts of the U.S. To facilitate future research and monitor local progress, we have posted annual statistics on life expectancy by income group and geographic area (state, CZ, and county) at The Health Inequality Project website. Using these data, researchers will be able to study why certain places have high or improving levels of life expectancy and ultimately apply these lessons to reduce health disparities in other parts of the country.

The dataset contains information on various demographic and health indicators for different countries. It is organized into several columns, each providing essential information about these countries. Here's a description of each column:

1. Country: This column represents the names of different countries or regions included in the dataset. Each row corresponds to a specific country or region, and this column serves as the identifier for each entry.

2. Life Expectancy Males: This column contains data on the average life expectancy of males in each of the listed countries. Life expectancy is a crucial health indicator and provides an estimate of the average number of years a male can expect to live, given current mortality rates and health conditions.

3. Life Expectancy Females: Similar to the "Life Expectancy Males" column, this column provides data on the average life expectancy of females in the same countries. It reflects the average number of years a female can expect to live, considering the prevailing health and mortality conditions.

4. Birth Rate: The "Birth Rate" column contains information about the birth rate in each country. Birth rate is a demographic indicator that represents the number of live births per 1,000 people in a given population over a specific period, usually a year. It can provide insights into a country's population growth or decline.

5. Death Rate: This column presents data on the death rate in each of the listed countries. The death rate is another crucial demographic indicator and represents the number of deaths per 1,000 people in a population over a specific period, often a year. It helps gauge the overall health and mortality conditions within a country.

METHODOLOGY NOTES (across all datasets for this indicator) Life expectancy is commonly used as a measure of the health of a population. Life expectancy does not reflect how long any given individual is expected to live; rather, it is an artificial measure that captures an aspect of the mortality rates across a population that can be compared across time and populations. More information about the determinants of life expectancy that may lead to differences in life expectancy between neighborhoods can be found in the Bay Area Regional Health Inequities Initiative (BARHII) Health Inequities in the Bay Area report at http://www.barhii.org/wp-content/uploads/2015/09/barhii_hiba.pdf. Vital Signs measures life expectancy at birth (as opposed to cohort life expectancy). A statistical model was used to estimate life expectancy for Bay Area counties and ZIP Codes based on current life tables which require both age and mortality data. A life table is a table which shows, for each age, the survivorship of a people from a certain population.

Current life tables were created using death records and population estimates by age. The California Department of Public Health provided death records based on the California death certificate information. Records include age at death and residential ZIP Code. Single-year age population estimates at the regional- and county-level comes from the California Department of Finance population estimates and projections for ages 0-100+. Population estimates for ages 100 and over are aggregated to a single age interval. Using this data, death rates in a population within age groups for a given year are computed to form unabridged life tables (as opposed to abridged life tables). To calculate life expectancy, the probability of dying between the jth and (j+1)st birthday is assumed uniform after age 1. Special consideration is taken to account for infant mortality.

For the ZIP Code-level life expectancy calculation, it is assumed that postal ZIP Codes share the same boundaries as ZIP Code Census Tabulation Areas (ZCTAs). More information on the relationship between ZIP Codes and ZCTAs can be found at http://www.census.gov/geo/reference/zctas.html. ZIP Code-level data uses three years of mortality data to make robust estimates due to small sample size. Year 2013 ZIP Code life expectancy estimates reflects death records from 2011 through 2013. 2013 is the last year with available mortality data. Death records for ZIP Codes with zero population (like those associated with P.O. Boxes) were assigned to the nearest ZIP Code with population. ZIP Code population for 2000 estimates comes from the Decennial Census. ZIP Code population for 2013 estimates are from the American Community Survey (5-Year Average). ACS estimates are adjusted using Decennial Census data for more accurate population estimates. An adjustment factor was calculated using the ratio between the 2010 Decennial Census population estimates and the 2012 ACS 5-Year (with middle year 2010) population estimates. This adjustment factor is particularly important for ZCTAs with high homeless population (not living in group quarters) where the ACS may underestimate the ZCTA population and therefore underestimate the life expectancy. The ACS provides ZIP Code population by age in five-year age intervals. Single-year age population estimates were calculated by distributing population within an age interval to single-year ages using the county distribution. Counties were assigned to ZIP Codes based on majority land-area.

ZIP Codes in the Bay Area vary in population from over 10,000 residents to less than 20 residents. Traditional life expectancy estimation (like the one used for the regional- and county-level Vital Signs estimates) cannot be used because they are highly inaccurate for small populations and may result in over/underestimation of life expectancy. To avoid inaccurate estimates, ZIP Codes with populations of less than 5,000 were aggregated with neighboring ZIP Codes until the merged areas had a population of more than 5,000. ZIP Code 94103, representing Treasure Island, was dropped from the dataset due to its small population and having no bordering ZIP Codes. In this way, the original 305 Bay Area ZIP Codes were reduced to 217 ZIP Code areas for 2013 estimates. Next, a form of Bayesian random-effects analysis was used which established a prior distribution of the probability of death at each age using the regional distribution. This prior is used to shore up the life expectancy calculations where data were sparse.

The objective behind attempting this dataset was to understand the predictors that contribute to the life expectancy around the world. I have used Linear Regression, Decision Tree and Random Forest for this purpose. Steps Involved: - Read the csv file - Data Cleaning: - Variables Country and Status were showing as having character data types. These had to be converted to factor - 2563 missing values were encountered with Population variable having the most of the missing values i.e 652 - Missing rows were dropped before we could run the analysis. 3) Run Linear Regression - Before running linear regression, 3 variables were dropped as they were not found to be having that much of an effect on the dependent variable i.e Life Expectancy. These 3 variables were Country, Year & Status. This meant we are now working with 19 variables (1 dependent and 18 independent variables) - We run the linear regression. Multiple R squared is 83% which means that independent variables can explain 83% change or variance in the dependent variable. - OULTLIER DETECTION. We check for outliers using IQR and find 54 outliers. These outliers are then removed before we run the regression analysis once again. Multiple R squared increased from 83% to 86%. - MULTICOLLINEARITY. We check for multicollinearity using the VIF model(Variance Inflation Factor). This is being done in case when two or more independent variables showing high correlation. The thumb rule is that absolute VIF values above 5 should be removed. We find 6 variables that have a VIF value higher than 5 namely Infant.deaths, percentage.expenditure,Under.five.deaths,GDP,thinness1.19,thinness5.9. Infant deaths and Under Five deaths have strong collinearity so we drop infant deaths(which has the higher VIF value). - When we run the linear regression model again, VIF value of Under.Five.Deaths goes down from 211.46 to 2.74 while the other variable's VIF values reduce very less. Variable thinness1.19 is now dropped and we run the regression once more. - Variable thinness5.9 whose absolute VIF value was 7.61 has now dropped to 1.95. GDP and Population are still having VIF value more than 5 but I decided against dropping these as I consider them to be important independent variables. - SET THE SEED AND SPLIT THE DATA INTO TRAIN AND TEST DATA. We run the train data and get multiple R squared of 86% and p value less than that of alpha which states that it is statistically significant. We use the train data to predict the test data to find out the RMSE and MAPE. We run the library(Metrics) for this purpose. - In Linear Regression, RMSE (Root Mean Squared Error) is 3.2. This indicates that on an average, the predicted values have an error of 3.2 years as compared to the actual life expectancy values. - MAPE (Mean Absolute Percentage Error) is 0.037. This indicates an accuracy prediction of 96.20% (1-0.037). - MAE (Mean Absolute Error) is 2.55. This indicates that on an average, the predicted values deviate by approximately 2.83 years from the actual values.

We use DECISION TREE MODEL for the analysis.

• Run the required libraries (rpart, rpart.plot, RColorBrewer, rattle).
• We run the decision tree analysis using rpart and plot the tree. We use fancyRpartPlot.
• We use 5 fold cross validation method with CP (complexity parameter) being 0.01.
• In Decision Tree , RMSE (Root Mean Squared Error) is 3.06. This indicates that on an average, the predicted values have an error of 3.06 years as compared to the actual life expectancy values.
• MAPE (Mean Absolute Percentage Error) is 0.035. This indicates an accuracy prediction of 96.45% (1-0.035).
• MAE (Mean Absolute Error) is 2.35. This indicates that on an average, the predicted values deviate by approximately 2.35 years from the actual values.

We use RANDOM FOREST for the analysis.

• Run library(randomForest)
• We use varImpPlot to find out which variables are most significant and least significant. Income composition is the most important followed by adult mortality and the least relevant independent variable is Population.
• Predict Life expectancy through random forest model.
• In Random Forest , RMSE (Root Mean Squared Error) is 1.73. This indicates that on an average, the predicted values have an error of 1.73 years as compared to the actual life expectancy values.
• MAPE (Mean Absolute Percentage Error) is 0.01. This indicates an accuracy prediction of 98.27% (1-0.01).
• MAE (Mean Absolute Error) is 1.14. This indicates that on an average, the predicted values deviate by approximately 1.14 years from the actual values.

Conclusion: Random Forest is the best model for predicting the life expectancy values as it has the lowest RMSE, MAPE and MAE.

This dataset contains healthy life expectancy and disability-free life expectancy by gender, from birth and age 65. Health life expectancy is defined as the average number of years a person aged 'x' would live in good/fairly good health if he or she experiences the particular area's age-specific mortality and health rates throughout their life. Disability-free life expectancy is defined as the average number of years a person aged 'x' would live disability-free (no limiting long-term illness) if he or she experienced the particular area's age-specific mortality and health rates throughout their life. The estimates are calculated by combining age and sex specific mortality rates, with age and sex specific rates on general health and limiting long-term illness.

Life expectancy is a summary measure of the all-cause mortality rates in an area in a given period. It shows an estimate of the average number of years a newborn baby would survive if he or she experienced the age-specific mortality rates for that area and time period throughout his or her life. Figures reflect mortality among those living in an area in the given time period, not the life expectancy of newborn children. That is because both the mortality rates of the area are likely to change in the future, and because many of those born in the area will live elsewhere for at least some part of their lives. Life expectancy is a summary measure of a population's health. It may be influenced by premature mortalities and health inequalities. Data source: Office for Health Improvement and Disparities (ODHI), indicator 90366.

Life Expectancy - This indicator shows life expectancy from birth, in years. Life expectancy is a summary measure used to describe overall health. Life expectancy at birth is the average number of years a newborn is expected to live given current conditions. The life expectancy in the US is the highest in recorded history thanks to public health interventions such as improvements in sanitation and food safety, development and use of vaccines, and health promotion efforts.
