Calculating a Standard Error for the Gini Coefficient: Some Further Results
Various authors have proposed using the jackknife technique to approximate a standard error for the Gini coefficient. It has also been shown that the Gini measure can be obtained simply from an artificial OLS regression based on the data and their ranks. Accordingly, we show that obtaining an exact analytical expression for the standard error is a trivial matter. In addition, by extending the r...
متن کاملSome Further Results on the Minimum Error Entropy Estimation
The minimum error entropy (MEE) criterion has been receiving increasing attention due to its promising perspectives for applications in signal processing and machine learning. In the context of Bayesian estimation, the MEE criterion is concerned with the estimation of a certain random variable based on another random variable, so that the error’s entropy is minimized. Several theoretical result...
متن کاملFurther results on odd mean labeling of some subdivision graphs
Let G(V,E) be a graph with p vertices and q edges. A graph G is said to have an odd mean labeling if there exists a function f : V (G) → {0, 1, 2,...,2q - 1} satisfying f is 1 - 1 and the induced map f* : E(G) → {1, 3, 5,...,2q - 1} defined by f*(uv) = (f(u) + f(v))/2 if f(u) + f(v) is evenf*(uv) = (f(u) + f(v) + 1)/2 if f(u) + f(v) is odd is a bijection. A graph that admits an odd mean labelin...
متن کاملResults on the Standard Error of the Coefficient Alpha Index of Reliability
I this research, we investigate the behavior of Cronbach’s coefficient alpha and its new standard error. We systematically analyze the effects of sample size, scale length, strength of item intercorrelations, and scale dimensionality. We demonstrate the beneficial effects of sample size on alpha’s standard error and of scale length and the strengths of item intercorrelations (effects that are s...
