A Novel Lifetime Model With A Bathtub-Shaped Hazard Rate: Properties & Applications
Journal of Applied Science and Engineering, 2022 A novel three-parameter lifetime model called the Marshall Olkin power Ailamujia (MOPA) distribution is developed. The statistical qualities and reliability characteristics of the proposed model are examined, including moment, generating function ...

GROSS INLAND ENERGY CONSUMPTION INEQUALITY IN EUROPE: AN EMPIRICAL APPROACH
Revista de Economía Mundial, 2018 This paper analyses the gross inland energy consumption (EC) in the European Union countries (EU-15) over the period 2005-2014. The standard tools in the measurement of income inequality such as Lorenz curves, Gini index, Generalized Entropy indices and ...

Lorenz Curves, Size Classification, and Dimensions of Bubble Size Distributions
Entropy, 2009 Lorenz curves of bubble size distributions and their Gini coefficients characterize demixing processes. Through a systematic size classification, bubble size histograms are generated and investigated concerning their statistical entropy.

Tsallis Log-Scale-Location Models. Moments, Gini Index and Some Stochastic Orders
Mathematics, 2021 In this article we give theoretical results for different stochastic orders of a log-scale-location family which uses Tsallis statistics functions. These results describe the inequalities of moments or Gini index according to parameters.

Journal of the Egyptian Public Health Association, 2021 Background Improvement in maternal healthcare is a public health priority. Unfortunately, in spite of the efforts made over time regarding universal coverage, there remain issues with accessibility and use of healthcare services up to now. In this study,

Quantile versions of the Lorenz curve
Electronic Journal of Statistics, 2016 The classical Lorenz curve is often used to depict inequality in a population of incomes, and the associated Gini coefficient is relied upon to make comparisons between different countries and other groups. The sample estimates of these moment-based concepts are sensitive to outliers and so we investigate the extent to which quantile-based definitions ...

Minimum distance estimation of parametric Lorenz curves based on grouped data
, 2020 The Lorenz curve, introduced more than 100 years ago, remains as one of the main tools for analysis of inequality. International institutions such as the World Bank collect and publish grouped income data in the form of population and income shares for a

Strassen's LIL for the Lorenz Curve
Journal of Multivariate Analysis, 1996 The authors prove Strassen's law of the iterated logarithm for the Lorenz process assuming that the underlying d.f. \(F\) and its inverse \(F^{-1}\) are continuous and the moment \(EX^{2+u}\) is finite for some \(u>0\). Previously, the first author, \textit{S. Csörgö} and \textit{L.
