LC: Lee-Carter Mortality Model as implemented in StMoMo package

In mpascariu/MortalityForecast: Standard Tools to Compare and Evaluate Various Mortality Forecasting Methods

Description

Lee-Carter Mortality Model as implemented in StMoMo package

Usage

LC(data, x, y, link = "logit", radix = 1e+05, verbose = FALSE)

Arguments

data	A data.frame or a matrix containing mortality data with ages x as row and time y as column.
x	Numerical vector indicating the ages in input data. Optional. Default: NULL.
y	Numerical vector indicating the years in input data. Optional. Default: NULL.
link	defines the link function and random component associated with the mortality model. "log" would assume that deaths follow a Poisson distribution and use a log link while "logit" would assume that deaths follow a Binomial distribution and a logit link.
radix	Radix.
verbose	A logical value. Set verbose = FALSE to silent the process that take place inside the function and avoid progress messages.
