Variance estimation for quantile group shares, cumulative shares, and Gini coefficient [PDF]

open access: yes
This short talk introduces and illustrates svylorenz, a Stata 9 program for computing variance estimates for quantile group shares of total varname, cumulative quantile group shares (i.e., Lorenz curve ordinates), and the Gini coefficient.

Preferences on Lorenz curves and the Gini coefficient

open access: yes, 2020
V diplomskem delu obravnavamo preference na Lorenzovih krivuljah in Ginijev koeficient. Najprej definiramo Lorenzove krivulje, ki jih uporabljamo za analizo neenakosti v porazdelitvah, in iz njih izpeljano mero neenakosti Ginijev koeficient.

Lorenz Curve Interpolation and the Gini Coefficient

open access: yesJournal of Income Distribution®, 2010
This article presents a simple non-polynomial spline that may be used to construct Lorenz curves from grouped data. The spline is naturally convex and works by determining a series of piecewise segments that may be joined to give a smooth and continuous Lorenz curve.

A family of arctan Lorenz curves

open access: yes, 2016
This paper presents a new family of parametric Lorenz curves based on the arctan function and adding a parameter - ∞< α< ∞, α≠ 0 to an initial Lorenz curve L0(p),0≤p≤1.

CHANGES IN SOCIAL WELFARE IN SINGAPORE - 1982-1999 [PDF]

open access: yes
This paper examines the changes in social welfare in Singapore using Labour Force Survey data. To study the changes and dominance, both ordinal and cardinal measures are used.

Lorenz Curves, Inequality, and Social Welfare Under Changing Population Composition [PDF]

open access: yes, 1987
This paper analyzes the properties of Lorenz curves and generalized Lorenz curves produced from combinations of income distributions. The paper shows that when sub-populations have equal means, a number of simple conditions govern the position of the ...

La desigualdad económica medida a través de las curvas de Lorenz // Economic inequality measurement through Lorenz curves

open access: yes, 2017
En el presente trabajo se analiza la influencia de las curvas de Lorenz, el Principio de Transferencias y las relaciones de mayoración entre vectores de renta sobre las medidas de desigualdad. De esta forma, se pasa revista al desarrollo histórico que ha

Robust Lorenz Curves: A Semiparametric Approach [PDF]

open access: yes
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 ...
