How to use the dataset
In order to use this dataset, start by selecting a particular set of variables to investigate. You can choose from Measure Names (e.g., Death Rates or Life Expectancy), Race (e.g., All Races), Sex (Male/Female) and Year (2011-2013). Once you have selected your desired variables, you can begin analyzing the data by looking at mortality rates and life expectancy averages amongst different populations in the United States over time.
You may also wish to perform more detailed analyses such as identifying trends or examining correlations between features, regional disparities in mortality rates or changes in average life expectancies over time. If so, you can do so by creating line graphs plotted against one or more independent variables such as Race and Sex to see how demographics impact these statistics overall and on a yearly basis using the Year variable computed from July 1st 2010 estimates
Research Ideas
- Analyzing mortality and life expectancy trends among certain races and sexes over time.
- Examining the effects of different socioeconomic factors on death rates and life expectancies.
- Making predictions about future mortality rates and average life expectancies with machine learning algorithms
