Gender Diversity Index. Measuring persistence

Research in International Business and Finance, 2021
Abstract This paper deals with the analysis of the Gender Diversity Index (GDI), which is an Index developed by Solactive AG and is calculated and distributed by this provider. The index tracks the performance of developed world companies that are successfully working towards gender diversity as part of their CSR (Corporate Social Responsibility ...

Population diversity index

Proceedings of the 13th annual conference companion on Genetic and evolutionary computation, 2011
A number of diversity measures used in evolutionary computing suffer from 'mis-measuring' the diversity of populations. In this paper, we identify and demonstrate this problem using a carefully engineered test suite of six differently arranged populations.

Index Modulation using Polarization Diversity based Antenna Indexing

2020 International Conference on Communication and Signal Processing (ICCSP), 2020
In this paper, we propose the use of polarization diversity based antenna indexing scheme for encoding the information bits without requirement of any additional bandwidth. Two antennas having orthogonal polarization, namely left and right handed circular polarization, are used to transmit the conventionally modulated data.

Hypoentropy as an Index of Diversity

Theory of Probability & Its Applications, 1993
Summary: We consider a measure of the diversity of a population based on the \(\lambda\)-measure of hypoentropy introduced by \textit{C. Ferreri} [Statistica 40, 155-168 (1980; Zbl 0454.62004)]. Our purpose is to study its asymptotic distribution as well as its application to testing hypotheses.

An index of functional diversity

Journal of Vegetation Science, 2003
Abstract. Functional diversity has been seen as the key to predicting the stability, invasibility, resource capture, nutrient cycling and productivity of communities. However, it has been unclear how to estimate it. Ten criteria for an index of functional diversity are developed. These include that it should reflect the range of characters present and

An index of ecosystem diversity

Ecological Modelling, 1991
Abstract An information entropy index is presented to measure ecosystem diversity based on the numbers of components and the strengths of interactions between them.

Phylogenetic skew: an index of community diversity

Molecular Ecology, 2015
AbstractThe distribution of divergence times between member species of a community reflects the pattern of species composition. In this study, we contrast the species composition of a community against the meta‐community, which we define as the species composition of a set of target communities.

Bayesian estimation of Shannon's index of diversity

Biometrika, 1979
SUMMARY This paper is concerned with methods of estimating Shannon's information measure, and with the sampling properties of those estimates. A Bayesian approach is used to suggest two possible classes of estimators, and their properties are compared with those of the usual Shannon measure of diversity.
