REVISITING THE ORDERED FAMILY OF LORENZ CURVES [PDF]
Lorenz curve; Gini index Abstract: Sarabia et al. (1999) present a basic model to create ordered families of Lorenz curves, along with basic theorems that describe the conditions for the models to satisfy the definition of the Lorenz curve.

Advancing the Growth of GaN on AlScN and AlYN by Metal–Organic Chemical Vapor Deposition
Growth of 2D GaN caps on AlScN and AlYN layers by metal‐organic chemical vapor deposition is challenging due to low GaN adatom mobility on these layers. Detailed structural analysis and growth parameter variation reveal how such layers can be grown.

The Assessment of Poverty and Inequality through Parametric Estimation of Lorenz Curves: An Evaluation [PDF]
The estimation of poverty and inequality often requires the use of grouped data as complete household surveys are neither always available to researchers nor easy to analyze.

Trends in gabapentinoid prescribing: A nationwide Danish drug utilization study
Aims Pregabalin and gabapentin are increasingly used for pain and other conditions. Concerns exist about overuse as well as potential misuse and abuse. To guide rational prescribing practices, we provide detailed nationwide data on the use of gabapentinoids in Denmark.

TWO NEW EXPONENTIAL FAMILIES OF LORENZ CURVES [PDF]
We present two new Lorenz curve families by using the basic model proposed by Sarabia, Castillo and Slottje (1999). We present estimations which show that the models in our new families are very efficient when applied to data on income distribution for a

In this study, a library of rhenium di‐ and tricarbonyl complexes featuring various antimicrobial azoles as monodentate ligands was synthesized and characterized. Their antimicrobial activity was evaluated against both methicillin‐sensitive (MSSA) and methicillin‐resistant (MRSA) Staphylococcus aureus, and selected compounds were also assessed for ...

Tricks with the lorenz curve [PDF]
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 ...

An alternative functional form for estimating the Lorenz Curve [PDF]
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
