An equation for the lognormal Lorenz curve
The Lorenz curve for assessing economic inequality depicts the relation between two cumulative distribution functions (CDFs), one for the distribution of incomes or wealth and the other for their first-moment distribution. By contrast, the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve for evaluating diagnostic systems depicts the relation between the complements of two CDFs, one for the distrib...
متن کاملModelling Lorenz curve
There has been a large number of studies in which the scientists have built models for income distributions. As an alternative, some have built models for Lorenz curves. The step from Lorenz curve to distribution function is more difficult than the step from distribution function to Lorenz curve. There is a difference between advanced and simple Lorenz models. Advanced models with several param...
متن کاملMethods for Parameter Estimation of the Lorenz Functional Forms and Compare Them Based on Household Expenses Data
In the modern society and specially in our country discussion of poverty, wealth and social justice are the most important arguments of public and private circles. The most important graphical tools which are used to describe the quantity of centralization like wealth in a society is Lorenz curve. In these situations, most of econometricians measure the economic inequalities. In the discrete ca...
متن کاملFunctional Form of the Environmental Kuznets Curve
This paper provides an overview of recent econometric advances on testing of functional form with semiparametric methods and their application to the estimation of the environmental Kuznets curve (EKC). The EKC in environmental economics is estimated using panel data models and provides a fertile ground for the adoption of recent panel data developments. The paper provides a discussion of recen...
متن کاملStructural-Functional Dynamism: An Alternative Approach to Spatial
Spatial planning approaches along with complication of societies are being changed. These changes and transformations have reflected themselves in increasing diversification of economic patterns, people, group, organization, and institution’s mobility. While in less developed network societies some of the concepts including “distance” and “movement “are relatively losing their importance , some...
