predictLT: Predict a Life Table from Child or Child/Adult Mortality.

In sinafala/svdComp5q0: Child/Child-Adult Mortality-Indexed Model Life Tables

Predict a Life Table from Child or Child/Adult Mortality.

Description

Predict single-year, age-specific probabilities of dying (1qx) using the SVD-Comp mortality model indexed by child/child-adult mortality.

Usage

predictLT(
  sex,
  cm,
  smooth = TRUE,
  outlogit = FALSE,
  out5 = TRUE,
  am = NULL,
  modsv = 2018
)

Arguments

sex	Character: 'female' or 'male'.
cm	Decimal: the input value(s) for 5q0; either a single value or a vector of values.
smooth	Boolean: use either smooth or raw SVD-derived components. Default is TRUE.
outlogit	Boolean: output either logit scale or natural scale 1qx values. Default is FALSE.
out5	Boolean: if returning natural scale values and out5=TRUE, then return in five-year age groups, 5qx. Default is TRUE.
am	Optional decimal: input value(s) for 45q15; either single value or vector of values. If a vector, must have the same number of elements as cm.
modsv	Optional integer: specifies version of calibration models to use; defaults to 2022 but can be set to 2018.

Value

Data frame: predicted 1qx values for ages 0:109. Age 110 assumed to be 1.0 and not returned. Columns labeled with input child mortality values.
