IneqPy's Package

This package provides statistics to carry on inequality's analysis. Among the estimators provided by this package you can find:

Main Statistics Inequality Indicators
Weighted Mean Weighted Gini
Weighted Variance Weighted Atkinson
Weighted Coefficient of variation Weighted Theil
Weighted Kurtosis Weighted Kakwani
Weighted Skewness Weighted Lorenz curve

Installation

pip install ineqpy
# or from github's repo
pip install git+https://github.com/mmngreco/IneqPy.git

What you can find

Some examples of how use this package:

>>> import pandas as pd

Descriptive statistics

>>> ineqpy.mean(variable=d.renta, weights=d.factor)
20444.700666031338
>>> ineqpy.var(variable=d.renta, weights=d.factor)
2982220948.7413292
>>> x, w = d.renta.values, d.factor.values

Note that the standardized moment for order n, retrieve the value in that column:

n value
1 0
2 1
3 Skew
4 Kurtosis

A helpful table of interpretation of the moments

>>> ineqpy.std_moment(variable=x, weights=w, order=1)  # ~= 0
2.4624948200717338e-17
>>> ineqpy.std_moment(variable=x, weights=w, order=2)  # = 1
1.0
>>> ineqpy.std_moment(variable=x, weights=w, order=3)  # = skew
5.9965055750379426
>>> ineqpy.skew(variable=x, weights=w)
5.9965055750379426
>>> ineqpy.std_moment(variable=x, weights=w, order=4)  # = kurtosis
42.319928851703004
>>> ineqpy.kurt(variable=x, weights=w)
42.319928851703004

Inequality's estimators

# pass a pandas.DataFrame and inputs as strings
>>> ineqpy.gini(data=d, income='renta', weights='factor')
0.76739136365917116
# you can pass arrays too
>>> ineqpy.gini(income=d.renta.values, weights=d.factor.values)
0.76739136365917116

More examples and comparison with other packages:

We generate random weighted data to show how ineqpy works. The variables simulate being:

x : Income
w : Weights

To test with classical statistics we generate:

x_rep : Income values replicated w times each one.
w_rep : Ones column.

Percentiles

>>> ineq_stat.percentile(x, w, 25) =  293
>>> np.percentile(x_rep, 25)       =  293.0

>>> ineq_stat.percentile(x, w, 50) =  526
>>> np.percentile(x_rep, 50)       =  526.0

>>> ineq_stat.percentile(x, w, 90) =  839
>>> np.percentile(x_rep, 90)       =  839.0

Another way to use this is through the API module as shown below:

API's module

Using API's module:

>>> data = Survey(data=data, columns=columns, weights='w')
>>> data.df.head()
     x  w
0  111  3
1  711  4
2  346  4
3  667  1
4  944  1

Statistics

>>> data.weights = w
>>> df.mean(main_var)       = 488.535714286
>>> df.percentile(main_var) = 526
>>> df.var(main_var)        = 63086.1364796
>>> df.skew(main_var)       = -0.0586696059679
>>> df.kurt(main_var)       = 2.20806107981
>>> df.gini(main_var)       = 0.298494329293
>>> df.atkinson(main_var)   = 0.0925853855635
