Currently supported: excess hazard models (Dickman, Sloggett, Hills, and Hakulinen (2012) ), rates, mean survival times, relative/net survival (in particular the Ederer II (Ederer and Heise (1959)) and Pohar Perme (Pohar Perme, Stare, and Esteve (2012) ) estimators), and standardized incidence and mortality ratios, all of which can be easily adjusted for by covariates such as age. Fast splitting and aggregation of ''Lexis'' objects (from package ''Epi'') and other computations achieved using ''data.table''.' authors: - family-names: Miettinen given-names: Joonas email: joonas.miettinen@cancer.fi orcid: https://orcid.org/0000-0001-8624-6754 - family-names: Rantanen given-names: Matti email: matti.rantanen@statfinn.com repository: https://cran.r-universe.dev repository-code: https://github.com/FinnishCancerRegistry/popEpi commit: 1899a1b94217dd03a8b9ca9b56dea9be6bf8fa94 url: https://github.com/FinnishCancerRegistry/popEpi date-released: '2026-07-01' contact: - family-names: Miettinen given-names: Joonas email: joonas.miettinen@cancer.fi orcid: https://orcid.org/0000-0001-8624-6754
