A comparative study of the life tables of Assam, Kerala and India, 1980.
The authors construct "life tables for Assam...using the Sample Registration System data of 1980 [and applying] Greville's method of constructing abridged life tables.  These tables are compared with those of Kerala and India.  Brass' two parameter logit system [when] fitted to survivors shows that risk of mortality of Kerala females, is much lower than that of India and Assam."
