popmort

Population mortality rates in Finland 1951 - 2013 in 101 age groups and
by gender. This is an example of a population hazard table as used in 
popEpi; for the general help page, see <code><a rd-options="" href="/link/pophaz?package=popEpi&version=0.4.9" data-mini-rdoc="popEpi::pophaz">pophaz</a></code>.

Enables computation of epidemiological statistics, including those
where counts or mortality rates of the reference population are used.
Currently supported: excess hazard models (Dickman, Sloggett, Hills, and
Hakulinen (2012) <doi:10.1002/sim.1597>), rates, mean survival times,
relative/net survival (in particular the Ederer II (Ederer and Heise (1959))
and Pohar Perme (Pohar Perme, Stare, and Esteve
(2012) <doi:10.1111/j.1541-0420.2011.01640.x>) estimators),
and standardized incidence and mortality ratios,
all of which can be easily adjusted for by covariates such as
age. Fast splitting and aggregation of 'Lexis' objects (from package 'Epi')
and other computations achieved using 'data.table'.
