将洛伦兹曲线的不对称性纳入经济不平等指标AI 解读

The Gini index signals only the dispersion of the distribution and is not very sensitive to income differences at the tails of the distribution. The widely used index of inequality can be adjusted to also measure distributional asymmetry by attaching weights to the distances between the Lorenz curve and the 45-degree line. The measure is equivalent to the Gini if the distribution is symmetric. The alternative measure of inequality inherits good properties from the Gini but…

结合基尼系数与角度衡量经济离散程度AI 解读

Classical measures of inequality use the mean as the benchmark of economic dispersion. They are not sensitive to inequality at the left tail of the distribution, where it would matter most. This paper presents a new inequality measurement tool that gives more weight to inequality at the lower end of the distribution, it is based on the comparison of all value pairs and synthesizes the dispersion of the whole distribution. The differences that sum to the Gini coefficient are…
