RkMetrics - Hybrid Mortality Estimation
Hybrid Mortality Modelling (HMM) provides a framework in
which mortality around "the accident hump" and at very old ages
can be modelled under a single model. The graphics' codes
necessary for visualization of the models' output are included
here. Specifically, the graphics are based on the assumption
that, the mortality rates can be expressed as a function of the
area under the curve between the crude mortality rates plots
and the tangential transform of the force of mortality.
