Given a sequence of \(n\) non-negative numbers \(x=(x_1,\dots,x_n)\), where \(x_i \ge x_j \ge 0\) for \(i \le j\), the \(g\)-index (Egghe, 2006) for \(x\) is defined as $$G(x)=\max\{i=1,\dots,n: \sum_{j=1}^i x_i \ge i^2\}$$ if \(n \ge 1\) and \(x_1 \ge 1\), or \(G(x)=0\) otherwise.
index_g(x)index.g(x) # same as index_g(x), deprecated alias
index_g_zi(x)
a non-negative numeric vector
a single numeric value
index.g is a (deprecated) alias for index_g.
Note that index_g is not a zero-insensitive impact function,
see Examples section. index_g_zi is its zero-sensitive variant:
it assumes that the aggregated vector is padded with zeros.
If non-increasingly sorted vector is given, the function is O(n).
For historical reasons, this function is also available via its alias,
index.g [but its usage is deprecated].
