  The BayesMortalityPlus package provides a framework for modelling and
predicting mortality data. The package includes tools for the construction of
life tables based on Heligman-Pollard laws, and also on dynamic linear
smoothers. Flexibility is available in terms of modelling so that the response
variable may be modeled as Poisson, Binomial or Gaussian. If temporal data is
available, the package provides a Bayesian implementation for the well-known
Lee-Carter model that allows for estimation, projection of mortality over time,
and assessment of uncertainty of any linear or nonlinear function of parameters
such as life expectancy. Illustrations are considered to show the capability of
the proposed package to model mortality data.
