Extremal Values of the Sackin Tree Balance Index [PDF]

open access: yesAnnals of Combinatorics, 2021
AbstractTree balance plays an important role in different research areas like theoretical computer science and mathematical phylogenetics. For example, it has long been known that under the Yule model, a pure birth process, imbalanced trees are more likely than balanced ones.

Mean-of-Order-p Location-Invariant Extreme Value Index Estimation

open access: yesRevstat Statistical Journal, 2016
A simple generalisation of the classical Hill estimator of a positive extreme value index (EVI) has been recently introduced in the literature. Indeed, the Hill estimator can be regarded as the logarithm of the mean of order p = 0 of a certain set of ...

Distributed inference for the extreme value index

open access: yesBiometrika, 2021
Summary In this paper we investigate a divide-and-conquer algorithm for estimating the extreme value index when data are stored in multiple machines. The oracle property of such an algorithm based on extreme value methods is not guaranteed by the general theory of distributed inference.

Improving Second Order Reduced Bias Extreme Value Index Estimation

open access: yesRevstat Statistical Journal, 2007
Classical extreme value index estimators are known to be quite sensitive to the number k of top order statistics used in the estimation. The recently developed second order reduced-bias estimators show much less sensitivity to changes in k. Here, we are

Iterative Estimation of the Extreme Value Index [PDF]

open access: yesMethodology and Computing in Applied Probability, 2005
Let {X n , n ≥ 1} be a sequence of independent random variables with common continuous distribution function F having finite and unknown upper endpoint. A new iterative estimation procedure for the extreme value index γ is proposed and one implemented iterative estimator is investigated in detail, which is ...

Modelling Dependencies of Stock Indices During Covid-19 Pandemic by Extreme-Value Copula

open access: yesJTAM (Jurnal Teori dan Aplikasi Matematika), 2023
Quantifying dependence among variables is the core of all modelling efforts in financial models. In the recent years, copula was introduced to model the dependence structure among financial assets return, and its application developed fast.

An Overview and Open Research Topics in Statistics of Univariate Extremes

open access: yesRevstat Statistical Journal, 2012
This review paper focuses on statistical issues arising in modeling univariate extremes of a random sample. In the last three decades there has been a shift from the area of parametric statistics of extremes, based on probabilistic asymptotic results in
