Plotting the results of Gompertz model calibration

Usage

plot_gompertz_calibration(params, mode, dispersion, max_age)

Arguments

params

A list returned by calc_gompertz_parameters() function.

mode

A numeric. The mode of the Gompertz model.

dispersion

A numeric. The dispersion of the Gompertz model.

max_age

A numeric. The maximum age of the Gompertz model.

Value

A ggplot2::ggplot() object showing the comparison between actual survival rates from life tables and the fitted Gompertz model.

Examples

mortality_rates <- 
  dplyr::filter(
    life_tables,
    country == "USA" & 
    sex     == "female" &
    year    == 2022
  )
  
params <- calc_gompertz_parameters(
  mortality_rates = mortality_rates,
  current_age     = 65
)

plot_gompertz_calibration(params = params)
