MortalityModels can be used to fit popular population mortality models in Julia. As of right now, MortalityModels is still under development and can only be used to fit a simple Lee-Carter (LC) model using a SVD decomposition. Other methods are still in development.
The LC model can be fitted in Julia using the following function:
LC_SVD(mMu)The function returns age and period effects for the LC model fitted using an SVD methodology. Note that the input here is a log force of mortality matrix with ages on the row and years on the columns.
