About the exact and asymptotic distribution of the Gini coefficient

open access: yesRevista de Matemática: Teoría y Aplicaciones, 2010
In this paper we deal with the distribution of the Gini Concentration Index (G). We derive its exact sample distribution which is useful only for small sample sizes and basing on the classic results for L-statistics of Egorov and Nevronov we prove the ...

Bilateral Gini Index

open access: yesRBEST: Revista Brasileira de Economia Social e do Trabalho, 2020
In this paper, we have considered a new contextualization of the Gini index, giving a particular interpretation of inequality. The Gini index is the most widely used measure of inequality in the world, however, this index does not meet some desirable properties of an inequality indicator, even so, as it is a measure adopted by most countries through ...

Is the Gini Index of Inequality Overly Sensitive to Changes in the Middle of the Income Distribution?

open access: yesStatistics and Public Policy, 2017
The Gini index is the most commonly used measure of income inequality. Like any single summary measure of a set of data, it cannot capture all aspects that are of interest to researchers.

The Gini index of speech [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
In which representation is speech most sparse? Time-scale? Time-frequency? Which window generator and length should be used to create the sparsest decomposition? To answer these questions, we propose the Gini index, which is twice the area between the Lorenz curve and the 45 degree line, as a measure of signal sparsity.

Comparison of the Gini and Zenga Indexes using Some Theoretical Income Distributions Abstract

open access: yesOperations Research and Decisions, 2013
The most common measure of inequality used in scientific research is the Gini index. In 2007, Zenga proposed a new index of inequality that has all the appropriate properties of an measure of equality.
