Characterizing compressibility with Lorenz curves [PDF]
This paper revisits earlier work on rate distortion behavior of sparse sources, namely it highlights the fact that a graphical sparsity characterization proposed in [1] is a Lorenz curve, a tool for summarizing income inequality that has been used by economists for over a century. The Lorenz curve associated to a memoryless source can be used to obtain

The increase in income and wealth inequality over the last 40 years in many countries has become a major issue in public policy. This paper introduces two curves, which are transforms of the Lorenz curve and their related measures.

La desigualdad económica medida a través de las curvas de Lorenz || Economic inequality measurement through Lorenz curves [PDF]
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

From Inequality to Extremes and Back: A Lorenz Representation of the Pickands Dependence Function
We establish a correspondence between Lorenz curves and Pickands dependence functions, thereby reframing the construction of any bivariate extreme-value copula as an inequality problem.

Truncated Lindley Gamma Distribution [PDF]
A new two-parameter truncated Lindley Gamma distribution (TLG) is proposed and its properties arestudied. These properties include; the behaviour of TLG density function and hazard rate function, moments and theassociated measures, reversed hazard ...

Assessing Economic Inequality Through the Lorenz Curve in Central and Eastern European Countries [PDF]
This study analyses economic inequality in Central and Eastern Europe (CEE) using tools such as the Lorenz Curve and the Gini coefficient. Originating in 1905, the Lorenz Curve, conceptualized by Max O.

The Minimum Lindley Lomax Distribution: Properties and Applications
By fusing the Lindley and Lomax distributions, we present a unique three-parameter continuous model titled the minimum Lindley Lomax distribution. The quantile function, ordinary and incomplete moments, moment generating function, Lorenz and Bonferroni ...

Modelling to Engineering Data: Using a New Two-Parameter Lifetime Model
A novel two-parameter continuous lifespan model is developed, based on a truncated Fréchet produced family of distributions known as the truncated Fréchet inverted Lindley distribution.
