4 u5mr
Introducing u5mr, an open-source R package designed for estimating child mortality rates. This package includes the implementation of various methods to estimate child mortality.
One notable feature of u5mr is its incorporation of the maternal age cohort-derived (MAC) and period-derived (MAP) methods proposed by Rajaratnam et al. These methods provide additional flexibility and accuracy in estimating child mortality rates, enhancing the reliability of the results.
To learn more about the MAC and MAP methods, refer to the publication by Rajaratnam et al. available at Rajaratnam et al.
