data.mean.child: mean of child mortality rates

In GPRMortality: Gaussian Process Regression for Mortality Rates

Description

A data frame for GPR mean function and must contain an estimate for each year.

This data must contain year and location of each mortality rate. It can be different models for mortality rate estimations by year.

Usage

data("data.mean.child")

Format

A data frame with 1728 observations on the following 3 variables.

year

a numeric vector

location

a numeric vector

mean

a numeric vector
