Communications in Statistics - Theory and Methods, 2016, vol. 45, issue 22, 6540-6552

Abstract: In this article, we look into the properties and characterizations of the New Zenga curve. The relationship of the curve with other measures of inequality as well as some reliability concepts are examined. Classification of lifetime distributions using the Zenga curve and an illustration for the behaviour of the curve using a survival data are also provided.
