Calculating the Gompertz model parameters for joint survival

Description

Calculating the Gompertz model parameters for joint survival

Usage

calc_gompertz_joint_parameters(
  p1 = list(age = NULL, mode = NULL, dispersion = NULL),
  p2 = list(age = NULL, mode = NULL, dispersion = NULL),
  max_age = 120
)

Arguments

p1	A list with age, mode and dispersion parameters for the first person (p1).
p2	A list with age, mode and dispersion parameters for the second person (p2).
max_age	A numeric. The maximum age for the Gompertz model.

Value

A list containing:

data	A data frame with survival rates for 'p1', 'p2', 'joint' survival, and the fitted Gompertz model
mode	The mode of the joint Gompertz distribution
dispersion	The dispersion parameter of the joint Gompertz distribution

Examples

calc_gompertz_joint_parameters(
  p1 = list(
    age        = 65,
    mode       = 88,
    dispersion = 10.65
  ),
  p2 = list(
    age        = 60,
    mode       = 91,
    dispersion = 8.88
  ),
  max_age = 110
)
