LABOR MARKET AND POVERTY IN BRAZIL [PDF]

Brazilian Review of Econometrics, 1999
This paper investigates if the responsibility of the poverty level registered in Brazil is the poor operation of the labor market, in terms of under-remuneration and under-utilization of the labor factor. By means of a micro-simulation-based decomposition of distributional changes we assess the impact on the degree of poverty of unemployment ...

Machine Learning for Green Solvents: Assessment, Selection and Substitution

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Environmental regulations have intensified demand for green solvents, but discovery is limited by Solvent Selection Guides (SSGs) that quantify solvent sustainability. Training a machine learning model on GlaxoSmithKline SSG, a database of sustainability metrics for 10,189 solvents, GreenSolventDB is developed. Integrated with Hansen solubility metrics,

The rise and fall of income inequality in Chile

Latin American Economic Review, 2017
This paper presents evidence on a rise and fall in income inequality in Chile during the past two decades. We show that income inequality rises from 1990 to 2000 and then falls from 2000 to 2011. We perform simple but informative decompositions to figure
