Randentropy: A Software to Measure Inequality in Random Systems
نویسندگان
چکیده
The software Randentropy is designed to estimate inequality in a random system where several individuals interact moving among many communities and producing dependent quantities of an attribute. overall assessed by computing the Random Theil’s Entropy. Firstly, estimates piecewise homogeneous Markov chain identifying change-points relative transition probability matrices. Secondly, it multivariate distribution function attribute using copula approach finally, through Monte Carlo algorithm, evaluates expected value Possible applications are discussed as related fields finance human mobility.

A generalized real-valued measure of the inequality associated with a fuzzy random variable
Fuzzy random variables have been introduced by Puri and Ralescu as an extension of random sets. In this paper, we ®rst introduce a real-valued generalized measure of the ``relative variation'' (or inequality) associated with a fuzzy random variable. This measure is inspired in Csisz ar's f-divergence, and extends to fuzzy random variables many well-known inequality indices. To guarantee certain...
متن کاملMeasure for Measure: How Proficiency-Based Accountability Systems Affect Inequality in Academic Achievement.
How do proficiency-based accountability systems affect inequality in academic achievement? This paper reconciles mixed findings in the literature by demonstrating that three factors jointly determine accountability's impact. First, by analyzing student-level data from a large urban school district, we find that when educators face accountability pressure, they focus attention on students closes...
متن کاملA methodology to measure the software process
This paper proposes a method to measure the software process that is based on a model of the software process. Object oriented concepts and techniques are used to build the model, measures are defined as an extension of the model. The method consists of 1) modelling the software process using an object oriented formalism, 2) defining goals for the project, 3) formalizing goals in process measur...
متن کاملA New Approach To Measure Software Security
A new method is proposed to measure software system security. Each component can be characterized by a composite net which combines the features of Finite State Machine and Operation Diagram. A fuzzy number is introduced to this net to represent uncertain elements that might affect the software security, and thus we construct Security Function for each component. The whole system Security Index...
متن کاملWhy Measure Inequality?
A large body of literature is devoted to the measurement of income inequality, yet little attention is given to the question, Why measure inequality? However, the reasons for measurement bear importantly on whether and how measurement should be done. Upon examination, normative measures are found to be of questionable value. Descriptive measures, by contrast, may be useful, but the appropriate ...
