Revisiting the Knowledge Gini Coefficient: Digital Literacies and Sustainable Development

Radar Modulation Identification Using Gini ’ s Coefficient

In this paper, we proposed a method for radar modulation identification using power inequality in frequency domain. The four classes of radar signals are classified: unmodulated (UM), linear frequency modulation (LFM), non-linear frequency modulation (NLFM), and frequency shift keying (FSK). To measure the frequency inequality, Gini's coefficient was introduced and the maximum likelihood (ML) c...

Indigenous Knowledge and Sustainable Development

Biodiversity, indigenous knowledge, and sustainable development are very closely linked. The indigenous knowledge systems of the peoples of the South constitute the world largest reservoir of knowledege of the diverse species of plant and animal life on earth. For many centuries, their indigenous agricultural systems have utilized practices and techniques which embody, what one scientist has ca...

Statistical map analysis of the mean and the gini coefficient of healthcare expenses in Iran

In many societies fairness and equality are the most significant concepts among the governments and peoples. In the health systems, the fast increase in expenses takes expert’s attention to measure and control the inequality. The aim of this paper is to investigate the inequality of household’s health expense’s in the Iran and making its statistical map. The health expenses data for doing t...

The Gini coefficient: Majority voting and social welfare

Majority voting and social evaluation functions are the main alternatives proposed in the literature for aggregatingindividual preferences. Despite these being very different, this papershows that the ranking of income distributions, symmetric under the same transformation, by S-Gini consistent social evaluation functions and majority voting coincide if and only if the inequality index under co...
