Semi-Parametric Estimation of Lorenz Curve and Gini-index in an Exponential Distribution
Open Access
|Mar 2014Abstract
In this article, we estimate Lorenz curve and Gini-index for exponential distribution using the semi-parametric method. We derived the estimates using least square method based on the survival function. The estimation is also carried out under various censoring schemes. The performances of the estimators in terms of MSE are compared via a Monte Carlo simulation study.
