To use the generalized beta distribution of the second kind (GB2) for the analysis of income and other positively skewed distributions, knowledge of estimation methods and the ability to compute quantities of interest from the estimated parameters ar

Formulas are derived for the Gini, Theil and Pietra coefficients for a population-weighted mixture of double Pareto-lognormal distributions; they are applied to South America for two years. Results are also provided for the special case Pareto-lognor

Low-quality patents are of considerable concern to businesses operating in patent-dense markets. There are two pathways by which low-quality patents may be issued: the patent office may apply systematically a standard that is too lenient (low inventi

We introduce a Bayesian approach for assessing Lorenz and stochastic dominance. For two income distributions, say X and Y, estimated via Markov chain Monte Carlo, we describe how to compute posterior probabilities for: (i) X dominates Y, (ii) Y domin

Data from large surveys are often supplemented with sampling weights that are designed to reflect unequal probabilities of response and selection inherent in complex survey sampling methods. We propose two methods for Bayesian estimation of parametri

The Lorenz curve, introduced more than 100 years ago, remains as one of the main tools for analysis of inequality. International institutions such as the World Bank collect and publish grou...

Using Household, Income and Labour Dynamics in Australia (HILDA) data for 2001, 2006, 2010, 2014 and 2017, we compute posterior probabilities for dominance for all pairwise comparisons of income distributions in these years. The dominance criteria co

We show how a wide range of stochastic frontier models can be estimated relatively easily using variational Bayes. We derive approximate posterior distributions and point estimates for parameters and inefficiency effects for (a) time invariant models
