A class of proximity-sensitive measures of relative deprivation
Stark, Oded; Bielawski, Jakub; Falniowski, Fryderyk - 2017
We introduce a new class of generalized measures of relative deprivation. The class takes the form of a power mean of order p . A characteristic of the class is that depending on the value of the proximity-sensitive parameter p , the class is capable of accommodating both a decreasing weight...

In der Londoner U-Bahn warnen die Worte "Mind the gap!" vor der Lücke zwischen Bahn und Bahnsteigkante. Auch die Diskrepanz zwischen Sozialstruktur und Semantik kann zum Stolperstein werden. Wenn Semantiken ihre Passgenauigkeit verlieren und den gesellschaftlichen Diskurs mit Kategorien...
