兵役对收入分布的影响：初始区间占优检验AI 解读

Existing empirical evidence suggests that the effects of Vietnam veteran status on earnings in the decade-and-a-half following service may be concentrated in the lower tail of the earnings distribution. Motivated by this evidence, we develop a formal statistical procedure that is specifically designed to test for lower tail dominance in the distributions of earnings. When applied to the same data as in previous studies, the test reveals that the distribution of earnings for…

绝对集中曲线与边际条件随机占优的假设检验AI 解读

We consider statistical tests concerning various relationships between two absolute concentration curves (ACCs). In particular, we consider tests for determining if the two ACCs coincide, if one is above another in a specified order, or if they do not intersect without specifying which one is above/below the other one. These problems are of interest in the context of marginal conditional stochastic dominance (MCSD). Constructing statistical tests for the MCSD relies on ideas…

平均剩余寿命过程AI 解读

Yang and Hall and Wellner initiated investigations of the asymptotic uniform behaviour of mean residual life (MRL) processes. They obtained results holding true over fixed and expanding compact subintervals of $[0, \infty)$. In this exposition we study MRL processes over the whole positive half-line $[0, \infty)$. We describe classes of weight functions which enable us to establish the (a) strong uniform-over-$[0, \infty)$ consistency and (b)weak uniform-over-$[0, \infty)$ ap…
