Comparing cross-country estimates of Lorenz curves using a Dirichlet distribution across estimators and datasets

Chang, Andrew C.; Li, Phillip; Martin, Shawn M. - 2017

Chotikapanich and Griffiths (2002) introduced the Dirichlet distribution to the estimation of Lorenz curves. This distribution naturally accommodates the proportional nature of income share data and the dependence structure between the shares. Chotikapanich and Griffiths (2002) fit a family of...

The construction and interpretation of combined cross-section and time-series inequality datasets

Francois, Joseph F.; Rojas-Romagosa, Hugo - 2005

The inequality dataset compiled in the 1990s by the World Bank and extendedby the UN has been both widely used and … strongly criticized. The criticisms raisequestions about conclusions drawn from secondary inequality datasets in general … new dataset of consistent inequality series,allowing us to explore problems of measurement error. In addition, the new …

Estimation of Gini coefficients using Lorenz curves

Fellman, Johan - In: Journal of statistical and econometric methods 1 (2012) 2, pp. 31-38

Primary income data yields the most exact estimates of the Gini coefficient. Using Lorenz curves, the Gini coefficient is defined as the ratio of the area between the diagonal and the Lorenz curve and the area of the whole triangle under the diagonal. Various attempts have been made to obtain...
