A Lower-Bounded Extreme Value Distribution for Flood Frequency Analysis with Applications
This paper proposes the lower-bounded Fréchet–log-logistic distribution (LFLD), a probability model designed for robust flood frequency analysis (FFA). The LFLD addresses key limitations of traditional distributions (e.g., generalized extreme value (GEV)

Measuring Financial Risk using Extreme Value Theory: evidence from Pakistan
The purpose of the paper is to show some methods of extreme value theory through analysis of Pakistani nancial data. It also in- troduced the fundamental of extreme value theory as well as practical aspects for estimating and assessing nancial models for

A trivariate extreme-value distribution applied to flood frequency analysis
A trivariate extreme value distribution has been derived from the logistic model for the multivariate extreme value distribution. The construction of its corresponding probability distribution and density function is described.

ASSESSMENT OF MARKET RISK IN HOG PRODUCTION USING VALUE-AT-RISK AND EXTREME VALUE THEORY
The objective of this paper is to investigate the performance of different VaR models in the context of risk assessment in hog production. Potential pitfalls of traditional VaR models are pinpointed and proposals to solve them are analyzed. After a brief

The Generalized Extreme Value (GEV) Distribution, Implied Tail Index and Option Pricing [PDF]
Crisis events such as the 1987 stock market crash, the Asian Crisis and the bursting of the Dot-Com bubble have radically changed the view that extreme events in financial markets have negligible probability.

Extreme Value Theory as a Theoretical Background for Power Law Behavior
Power law behavior has been recognized to be a pervasive feature of many phenomena in natural and social sciences. While immense research efforts have been devoted to the analysis of behavioral mechanisms responsible for the ubiquity of power-law scaling,

Generalized Extreme Value Distribution with Time-Dependence Using the AR and MA Models in State Space Form [PDF]
A new state space approach is proposed to model the time- dependence in an extreme value process. The generalized extreme value distribution is extended to incorporate the time-dependence using a state space representation where the state variables ...
