On the Analysis of Quasi-Life Tables

Lifetime Data Analysis, 2003
Baxter (1994) defined a quasi-life table in which the data arise from many concurrent, independent, discrete-time renewal processes. The processes are not observed individually, only the total numbers of renewals at each time point are observed. The estimates proposed by Baxter (1994), based on the discrete-time renewal equation, are studied more ...

An Improved Life Table Method

Biometrics, 1975
A life table estimates probabilities of surviving and of dying as well as death rates, as these would apply in a stationary population with the same underlying continuous mortality curve as the observed population. We have derived approximations to the probability of surviving that require no iteration, do not depend on graduation or interpolation, and

Life tables: construction and interpretation

2021
Abstract Life tables, which describe how the risk of death (and sometimes fertility) changes with age, are a fundamental tool for describing and exploring the diversity of life histories. Numerous important life history metrics can be derived from them.

Entropy and the life table

Naturwissenschaften, 1978
The life table of a population gives information about differences in age at death between the members of the population. These differences arise from the relative effects of genetic and environmental factors. The shape of the life table may provide information about the genetic variability in the population, the range of environmental factors that ...

The Life Table

1985
The main part of this book starts where demography itself started, with the life table. The life table is couched in terms of probabilities for individuals, but for populations it is a deterministic model of mortality and survivorship. That it presents expected values and disregards random variation is contrary to the way nature works and, in ...

Life Tables with Concomitant Information

Biometrics, 1976
A regression model for the analysis of survival data adjusting for concomitant information is developed. The model presented can lead to the log linear exponential model (Glasser [1967]) and the life table regression model of Cox [1972]. In addition, the model described can be used to analyze data from the commonly employed actuarial life table.

Life Table

1993
Abstract A life table is a detailed description of the mortality of a population giving the probability of dying and various other statistics at each age (Pressat, 1985). There are two general forms of the life table. The first is the cohort life table, which provides a longitudinal perspective in that it includes the mortality ...
