Show abstract
In this paper, a non-parametric approach has been proposed for the construction of life table at the local level. The approach is based on the non-parametric modelling of the transition in age-specific probabilities of death at higher levels of administration and the relationship between the geometric mean of the age-specific probabilities of death and the probability of death in the first five years of life. The application of the approach has been demonstrated by constructing life tables for the districts of Andhra Pradesh, India using the data from the 2011 population census and the sample registration system.
