This workshop features also contributions by project "The pre-Covid-19 stall in life expectancy in Italy: looking for explanations". Preliminary results will be presented by the different units, increasing the occasions of collaborations and discussions with other experts in the field. The workshop will feature also two invited talks by Monica Alexander and Alberto Roverato on topics of direct interest for the projects.

CARONTE, [2023–2025] is a PRIN–MIUR 2022 Grant aimed at bridging demography and recent advancements in functional data analysis, compositional data analysis, graphical models and discrete choice models, to develop a unique statistical modeling framework which can fully learn the complex systems of graphical dependencies underlying causes of death and unveil their combined effects on overall mortality.
