it's great that you are continuing this work from time to time. extremely interesting trend analysis!

wow, now that is some good work

110.7 years

(60 supercentenarians)

I don't like the trend. I wonder if the decrease in the number of supercentenarians is a result of the SAD catching up with society. The past supers grew up on natural food. Now we are getting into the generations that have been eating more crap and living in a society with a lot more toxicity.

aww well that was exciting for a while... things were looking really good for youre forecast around 08

111.4 years*

*Correction(s)/Change(s):
During the last years (and especially the last months) the number of validated 110-year-olds have decreased rapidly. According to the grg.org website the receiving and the processing/validating** older cases gets more priority. At this moment there are listed (http://grg.org/Adams/E.HTM):

1 116-year-old
1 115-year-old
1 114-year-old
12 113-year-olds
13 112-year-olds
28 111-year-olds
3 110-year-olds (listed below the main list)

There is a lag in validating 110-year-olds; by the time they get validated they either are dead or turned 111 year old.
It's 'fair' to consider at least as many 110-year-olds as 111-year-olds for the average age calculation. From now on, when calculating this average age, the number of 110-year-olds will be taken equal to that of 111-year-olds.

(along with this correction) Considering that this average age is presented in 4 significant figures, i.e. e.g. 110.6 years, and that on average people are roughly 'number'.5 years old (up to now, I have added only integer years when calculating the average age) a 0.5-years (half year) addition contributed to today's age increase.

These are the corrections/changes:

1. Number of 110-year-olds = Number of 111-year-olds (28 110-year-olds were considered today),
2. +0.5 years addjustment,

[from grg.org] **The actual estimated number of worldwide living supercentenarians is more likely to be between [300 - 450] persons.

111.3 years

It is in fact fair to consider that the number of 110-years old is at least twice as much as the number of 111 year old
Indeed the death rate at those ages is >=50%. This means that the number of 110 year old 365 days ago was at best guess greater than the double of number of 111 year old today. If the number of 110 is constant or increasing (as it seems to be), the number of 110 today is even greater.

111.5 years*

* AgeVivo's guesstimate seems better. Therefore, in calculating the average age of 100 validated oldest living people, these are considered (http://grg.org/Adams/E.HTM):

1 115-year-old,
1 114-year-old,
11 113-year-olds,
13 112-year-olds,
30 111-year-olds,
44 110-year-olds (guesstimate).

[If it were to be done the one-month old way the average age of 100 validated oldest living people would be 111.3 years, based on:

1 115-year-old,
1 114-year-old,
11 113-year-olds,
13 112-year-olds,
30 111-year-olds,
30 110-year-olds ('one-month old' guesstimate),
14 109-year-olds (another guesstimate).]

Interesting idea.

Are you taking the second derivative of a function to obtain that result?

indeed dS(t) = - r(t) S(t) + S(t) dWt so S(t) = exp(-integral r(t) dt + W(T)-W(0)) you take the second derivative, multiply by 3.1415 take the square root and add infinity and you get the first order approximation of the maximal human lifespan...

If you have a function describing the number of humans living to >100 years of age with respect to time and continuously updated, and differentiate this function you will get the speed at which people get to live to > 100, right? Differentiating it again will yield the acceleration of the function, which is the average rate of change pr. unit of time.

The function must have the right values.

Hi Deep Thought, I had thought you were joking. No, struct counts the average top 100 from http://www.grg.org/Adams/E.HTM It is a file about validated supercentanarians that is updated every day. Given the small number of people at such ages there, a nice function to be derivated twice wouldn't represent things well.

I am expressing the Av. Age. of 100 Validated O. Living People into septenary numeral system since there are only 37 supercentenarians listed at http://www.grg.org/S...nkingsList.html and this way it requires less data extrapolation.

I.e.: 100 in septenary system = 49 in  decimal system). If you don't like it this way refer to the last/past pages of this topic. For the advanced ones: expect at a later time a change of the unit of time. Wish you: All the best!

 

221 years (in Septenary System)
