Records in Athletics through Extreme-Value Theory [PDF]

open access: yesSSRN Electronic Journal, 2006
In this paper we shall be interested in two questions on extremes relating to world records in athletics.The first question is: what is the ultimate world record in a specific athletics event (such as the 100m for men or the high jump for women), given ...

Distributions conditioned on extrapolated events via copula and extreme value theory [PDF]

open access: yesMethodsX
In an interaction between road users, the proximity and speed are two interdependent dimensions which can be captured by a type of multivariate distribution called Copula. Copula requires all marginal distribution functions to be known.

Risk Management with Extreme Value Theory [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
In this paper we review certain aspects around the Value-at-Risk, which is nowadays the industry benchmark risk measure. As a small quantile (usually 1%) Value-at-Risk is closely related to extreme value theory.

Extreme Value Laws for Superstatistics

open access: yesEntropy, 2014
We study the extreme value distribution of stochastic processes modeled by superstatistics. Classical extreme value theory asserts that (under mild asymptotic independence assumptions) only three possible limit distributions are possible, namely: Gumbel,

New extreme value theory for maxima of maxima

open access: yesStatistical Theory and Related Fields, 2021
Although advanced statistical models have been proposed to fit complex data better, the advances of science and technology have generated more complex data, e.g., Big Data, in which existing probability theory and statistical models find their ...

Generalized Extreme Value Distribution for Modeling Earthquake Risk in Makran Subduction Zone Using Extreme Value Theory

open access: yesIndonesian Journal of Earth Sciences, 2023
The long-term pattern of severe incidents is one of the most crucial and fascinating topics of seismic events. This work aims to analyze the maximum annual earthquake magnitude in the Makran subduction zone using extreme value theory by implementing the

Biases in Estimating Long‐Term Recurrence Intervals of Extreme Events Due To Regionalized Sampling

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 2023
Preparing for environmental risks requires estimating the frequencies of extreme events, often from data records that are too short to confirm them directly. This requires fitting a statistical distribution to the data.

Extreme Value Theory and Value at Risk: Application to OPEC Market [PDF]

open access: yesPizhūhishnāmah-i Iqtiṣād-i Inirzhī-i Īrān, 2019
Regarding the role of the energy market, especially oil, on the economy of countries, it is important to identify the future evolution of the market. In this respect, predicting the changeable extreme evolution of the oil price is crucial for decision ...
