Description

After fitting a Lee-Carter model or functional demographic model, it is useful to inspect the residuals or plot the fitted values. These functions extract the relevant information from the fit object.

Usage

## S3 method for class 'fdm':
residuals(object,...)
## S3 method for class 'lca':
residuals(object,...)
## S3 method for class 'fdm':
fitted(object,...)
## S3 method for class 'lca':
fitted(object,...)

Arguments

object
Output from fdm or lca.
...
Other arguments.

Value

  • residuals.fdm and residuals.lca produce an object of class fmres containing the residuals from the model. fitted.fdm and fitted.lca produce an object of class fts containing the fitted values from the model.
