Investigating inequality: a Langevin approach

Condensed Matter Physics, 2017
Inequality indices are quantitative scores that gauge the divergence of wealth distributions in human societies from the "ground state" of pure communism.

Transmuted Modified Inverse Rayleigh Distribution

Austrian Journal of Statistics, 2015
We introduce the transmuted modified Inverse Rayleigh distribution by using quadratic rank transmutation map (QRTM), which extends the modified Inverse Rayleigh distribution.

Modelling to Engineering Data: Using a New Two-Parameter Lifetime Model

Journal of Function Spaces, 2022
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.

Graphical Measures Summarizing the Inequality of Income of Two Groups

Statistics and Public Policy, 2022
Recently, Gastwirth proposed two transformations and of the Lorenz curve, which calculates the proportion of a population, cumulated from the poorest or middle, respectively, needed to have the same amount of income as top .

Comparison of four performance models in quantifying the inequality of leaf and fruit size distribution

Ecology and Evolution
The inequality in leaf and fruit size distribution per plant can be quantified using the Gini index, which is linked to the Lorenz curve depicting the cumulative proportion of leaf (or fruit) size against the cumulative proportion of the number of leaves

Heterogeneous Reservoir Characterization (Upper Bahariya Case study)

ARCHive-SR, 2019
Upper Bahariya reservoir is one of the big productive reservoirs in the Western Desert (Egypt). It is characterized by high degree of heterogeneity. So, it is very important to characterize it accurately for improving its recoverable oil. Different tools

Estimating Lorenz and concentration curves in Stata [PDF]

, 2016
Lorenz and concentration curves are widely used tools in inequality research. In this paper I present a new Stata command called -lorenz- that estimates Lorenz and concentration curves from individual-level data and, optionally, displays the results in a

Weak orderings for intersecting Lorenz curves [PDF]

, 2016
The Lorenz dominance is a primary tool for comparison of non-negative distributions in terms of inequality. However, in most of cases Lorenz curves intersect and the ordering is not fulfilled, so that some alternative (weaker) criteria need to be to ...
