Bayesian extreme value modelling of annual maximum monthly rainfall in Somalia from 1901 to 2022

AIMS Geosciences
In the era of climate change-induced extreme rainfall events, the world faces unprecedented natural hazards, notably flooding. These events pose multifaceted risks to life, agriculture, infrastructure, and the well-being of society.

Asymptotic posterior normality of the generalized extreme value distribution

, 2021
The univariate generalized extreme value (GEV) distribution is the most commonly used tool for analyzing the properties of rare events. The ever greater utilization of Bayesian methods for extreme value analysis warrants detailed theoretical investigation, which has thus far been underdeveloped.

Robust Estimators in Generalized Pareto Models

, 2011
This paper deals with optimally-robust parameter estimation in generalized Pareto distributions (GPDs). These arise naturally in many situations where one is interested in the behavior of extreme events as motivated by the Pickands-Balkema-de Haan ...

Extreme value analysis of Munich airpollution data [PDF]

, 1995
We present three different approaches to model extreme values of daily air pollution data. We fitted a generalized extreme value distribution to the monthly maxima of daily concentration measures.

Modelling Extreme Rainfall using Extended Generalized Extreme Value Distribution

International Journal of Analysis and Applications
This study assesses the performance of extended generalized extreme value (GEV) distribution based on Kumaraswamy generalized extreme value (KumGEV) distribution using the maximum likelihood estimates on extreme rainfall data obtained from a weather station in Phitsanulok province, a total of 408 months during January 1987 to December 2021.

Forecast verification for extreme value distributions with an application to probabilistic peak wind prediction

, 2012
Predictions of the uncertainty associated with extreme events are a vital component of any prediction system for such events. Consequently, the prediction system ought to be probabilistic in nature, with the predictions taking the form of probability ...

Perceptions About Asymptomatic Hyperuricemia and Views About Urate‐Lowering Therapy in People With Asymptomatic Hyperuricemia

Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective Asymptomatic hyperuricemia is a precursor of gout and is also associated with cardiovascular disease and chronic kidney disease. The aim of this study was to understand perceptions about asymptomatic hyperuricemia and views about urate‐lowering therapy in people with asymptomatic hyperuricemia. Methods Participants in a multinational study of

Parameter Estimation for Generalized Extreme Value Distribution in Rainfall Forecasting: A Case Study of Bangkok

Journal of Applied Science and Engineering
This study aims to compare efficiency methods for the estimated parameter of Generalized Extreme Value Distribution (GEVD), which consists of location, scale, and shape parameters. The parameter estimation employs the maximum likelihood (ML), generalized
