A dataset containing 17 rows and 8 variables: Population counts for 1997 and 2007 in quinquennial age groups 0, 5, ... 75, with an open age of 80. Deaths are given as the average of the age-specific deaths in 1997 and 2007.

datasets

A set of three two-census methods to the estimate the degree of death registration coverage for a population. Implemented methods include the Generalized Growth Balance method (GGB), the Synthetic Extinct Generation method (SEG), and a hybrid of the two, GGB-SEG. Each method offers automatic estimation, but users may also specify exact parameters or use a graphical interface to guess parameters in the traditional way if desired.
