Mortality prediction is a research area that focuses on developing models and algorithms to predict the likelihood of an individual or a group of individuals experiencing death within a specified timeframe. These predictions can be based on various factors such as demographic information, medical history, lifestyle choices, and environmental factors. The goal of mortality prediction research is to assist healthcare professionals in identifying individuals who may be at a higher risk of mortality, allowing for early interventions and improved care management. This research is often applied in clinical settings, insurance underwriting, and public health policy development.
