Bayesian Structured Additive Distributional Regression (2013, background): “In economic research, the Dagum distribution [Chotikapanich, 2008] has become quite famous for modelling income distributions.”
Inference for Income Distributions Using Grouped Data (2012, methodology): “A limited solution to this problem was offered by Chotikapanich et al. (2007) (hereafter CGR) who suggested a method-of-moments estimator for the beta-2 distribution, implemented through nonlinear least squares. They applied it to a sample of 8 countries in two time periods, and illustrated how the ”
