DISTRIBUTIONS AND MOMENTS FOR ESTIMATORS OF GINI INDEX IN AN EXPONENTIAL DISTRIBUTION

  • 발행 : 1998.03.01

초록

In this paper we propose several estimators of Gini index of the two-parameter exponential distribution and obtain dis-tributions and moments of the proposed estimators. The proposed estimators are shown to cosistency and will be compares in terms of the proposed estimators. The proposed estimators are shown to cosistency and will be compared in terms of the mean squared error (MSE) through Monte Carlo method.
