From: Improving mortality forecasting using a hybrid of Lee–Carter and stacking ensemble model

Year	2016	2016	2019	2019
Ensemble	Actual	Predicted	Actual	Predicted
Stack-3	− 1.30684	− 1.210258	− 4.496415	− 4.654073
Stack-4	− 1.30684	− 1.210264	− 4.496415	− 4.653921
Stack-5	− 1.30684	− 1.257513	− 4.496415	− 4.521541

Increasing the number of base models leads to improved prediction accuracy
