Asymptotic and Bootstrap Inference for the Generalized Gini Indices
The Gini index represents a special case of the generalized Gini indices, which permit to choose a level of inequality aversion and to stress the different proportions of the income distribution. In order to apply these indices to income sample data, it is necessary to use reliable inferential procedures. In fact, also if often in income studies we have large samples for which the precision of ...
متن کاملEfficient Estimation of the Density and Cumulative Distribution Function of the Generalized Rayleigh Distribution
The uniformly minimum variance unbiased (UMVU), maximum likelihood, percentile (PC), least squares (LS) and weighted least squares (WLS) estimators of the probability density function (pdf) and cumulative distribution function are derived for the generalized Rayleigh distribution. This model can be used quite effectively in modelling strength data and also modeling general lifetime data. It has...
متن کاملBlock Bootstrap Estimation of the Distribution of Cumulative Outdoor Degradation
An interesting prediction problem involving degradation of materials exposed to outdoor environments (weathering) is the estimation of the distribution of future cumulative degradation using smallto moderate-size degradation data sets. This distribution, which is assumed to arise as a result of the uncertainty/variability in the weather, can be expressed mathematically as the distribution of th...
متن کاملUniform Asymptotic Inference and the Bootstrap After Model Selection
Recently, Tibshirani et al. (2016) proposed a method for making inferences about parameters defined by model selection, in a typical regression setting with normally distributed errors. Here, we study the large sample properties of this method, without assuming normality. We prove that the test statistic of Tibshirani et al. (2016) is asymptotically valid, as the number of samples n grows and t...
