Confidence sets for dynamic poverty indexes
In this study, we extend the research on the dynamic poverty indexes, namely the dynamic Headcount ratio, the dynamic income-gap ratio, the dynamic Gini and the dynamic Sen, proposed in D'Amico and Regnault (2018). The contribution is twofold. First, we extend the computation of the dynamic Gini index, thus the Sen index accordingly, with the inclusion of the inequality within each class of poverty where people are classified according to their income. Second, for each poverty index, we establish a central limit theorem that gives us the possibility to determine the confidence sets. An application to the Italian income data from 1998 to 2012 confirms the effectiveness of the considered approach and the possibility to determine the evolution of poverty and inequality in real economies.

Long term dynamics of poverty transitions in India
We model the dynamics of poverty using a stochastic model of Geometric Brownian Motion with reallocation (RGBM) and explore both transient and persistent poverty over 1952-2006. We find that annual transitions in and out…
The Role of Direct Capital Cash Transfers Towards Poverty and Extreme Poverty Alleviation -- An Omega Risk Process
Trapping refers to the event when a household falls into the area of poverty. Households that live or fall into the area of poverty are said to be in a poverty trap, where a poverty trap is a state of poverty from which …
Neural Ordinary Differential Equations for Modeling Socio-Economic Dynamics
Poverty is a complex dynamic challenge that cannot be adequately captured using predefined differential equations. Nowadays, artificial machine learning (ML) methods have demonstrated significant potential in modelling r…
Confidence Intervals for Testing Disparate Impact in Fair Learning
We provide the asymptotic distribution of the major indexes used in the statistical literature to quantify disparate treatment in machine learning. We aim at promoting the use of confidence intervals when testing the so-…
