Application of Lorenz-curve model to stratified water injection evaluation

open access: yesPetroleum Exploration and Development, 2015
To evaluate the effect of stratified water injection accurately during different development stages, a Lorenz-curve model was constructed upon a modified four-parameter Sarabia-Lorenz-curve model with water injectivity test data over years, and the ...

LORENZ: Stata module to estimate and display Lorenz curves and concentration curves

open access: green, 2016
Lorenz estimates Lorenz and concentration curves from individual-level data and, optionally, displays the results in a graph. Relative as well as generalized, absolute, unnormalized, or custom-normalized Lorenz or concentration curves are supported, and tools for computing contrasts between different subpopulations or outcome variables are provided ...

Robust Lorenz Curves: A Semiparametric Approach [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
Lorenz curves and second-order dominance criteria are known to be sensitive to data contamination in the right tail of the distribution. We propose two ways of dealing with the problem: (1) Estimate Lorenz curves using parametric models for income ...

Tricks with the lorenz curve [PDF]

open access: yesEconomics Bulletin, 2010
This note develops, for the Gini coefficient of inequality, a very simple generalization that directly incorporates judgments on ‘relative inter-group inequality aversion' by making the inequality measure sensitive to the skewness of the Lorenz curve ...

A multivariate extension of the Lorenz curve based on copulas and a related multivariate Gini coefficient [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Economic Inequality, 2021
We propose an extension of the univariate Lorenz curve and of the Gini coefficient to the multivariate case, i.e., to simultaneously measure inequality in more than one variable.

Spatial Equilibrium Evaluation of the Water Resources in Tai’an City Based on the Lorenz Curve and Correlation Number

open access: yesWater, 2023
Water resource spatial equilibrium evaluations provide the bases for water resource utilization and allocation. To analyze the regional spatial water resource matching balance, this study constructed a water resource spatial matching model based on the ...

The Gini coefficient and discontinuity

open access: yesCogent Economics & Finance, 2022
This article reveals a discontinuity in the mapping from a Lorenz curve to the associated cumulative distribution function. The problem is of a mathematical nature—based on an analysis of the transformation between the distribution function of a bound ...
