Open-end investment funds in Croatia [PDF]
This work discusses investment funds in Croatia, with a particular emphasis on openend investment funds. After a short review of the development of the funds, the perception of the funds is analysed, as are the trends in total assets and in average ...

An alternative functional form for estimating the Lorenz Curve [PDF]
, 2008 We propose a simple single parameter functional form for the Lorenz curve. The underlying probability density function and cumulative density functions for the Lorenz curve are derived and are shown to have some useful properties. The proposed functional

A Mini Review of Scientific Designs of Dynamic Responsive Fluids in Battery Technologies
Rare Metals, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Dynamic responsive fluids are emerging as transformative elements in the evolution of battery technologies, marking a pivotal shift from static passive designs toward systems that actively sense and adapt to their operating environments. By integrating dynamic responsive fluids, batteries can interact with both internal and external stimuli in

The Gompertz-Pareto Income Distribution
, 2010 This work analyzes the Gompertz-Pareto distribution (GPD) of personal income, formed by the combination of the Gompertz curve, representing the overwhelming majority of the economically less favorable part of the population of a country, and the Pareto ...

Rare Metals, EarlyView.ABSTRACT SnTe is considered a potential alternative to PbTe for thermoelectric applications. However, excessive carrier concentration and thermal conductivity result in poor thermoelectric performance. Herein, p‐type SnTe‐based materials Sn0.8‐xMn0.1Pb0.1SbxTe were synthesized, and the combined effects of Sb, Mn, and Pb were systematically investigated.

Price majorization and the inverse Lorenz function [PDF]
The paper presents an approach to the measurement of economic disparity in several commodities. We introduce a special view on the usual Lorenz curve and extend this view to the multivariate situation: Given a vector of shares of the total endowments in ...

Using time‐series remote sensing to identify and track individual bird nests at large scales
Remote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.Time‐series airborne imagery can potentially track individuals over time to collect information beyond one‐off counts. Using weekly UAS‐based imagery of wading bird colonies, we develop an automated approach to identifying nests. Our algorithmic approach detected 68–74% of known nests and exhibited similar performance to human review of imagery ...

Topics in Cognitive Science, EarlyView., 2023 Abstract Fractal fluctuations are a core concept for inquiries into human behavior and cognition from a dynamic systems perspective. Here, we present a generalized variance method for multivariate detrended fluctuation analysis (mvDFA). The advantage of this extension is that it can be applied to multivariate time series and considers intercorrelation ...
