Fluctuations in time intervals of financial data from the view point of the Gini index [PDF]
, 2006 We propose an approach to explain fluctuations in time intervals of financial markets data from the view point of the Gini index. We show the explicit form of the Gini index for a Weibull distribution which is a good candidate to describe the first ...
