Limit laws for random vectors with an extreme component [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Models based on assumptions of multivariate regular variation and hidden regular variation provide ways to describe a broad range of extremal dependence structures when marginal distributions are heavy tailed.

A note on nonparametric estimation of bivariate tail dependence [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Nonparametric estimation of tail dependence can be based on a standardization of the marginals if their cumulative distribution functions are known.

Estimation and confidence sets for sparse normal mixtures [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
For high dimensional statistical models, researchers have begun to focus on situations which can be described as having relatively few moderately large coefficients. Such situations lead to some very subtle statistical problems.

Multiplier bootstrap of tail copulas - with applications [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
In the problem of estimating the lower and upper tail copula we propose two bootstrap procedures for approximating the distribution of the corresponding empirical tail copulas.

Dynamic Bivariate Normal Copula

open access: yes, 2015
Normal copula with a correlation coefficient between $-1$ and $1$ is tail independent and so it severely underestimates extreme probabilities. By letting the correlation coefficient in a normal copula depend on the sample size, H\"usler and Reiss (1989 ...

BeStSel: a web server for accurate protein secondary structure prediction and fold recognition from the circular dichroism spectra

open access: yesNucleic Acids Res., 2018
Circular dichroism (CD) spectroscopy is a widely used method to study the protein secondary structure. However, for decades, the general opinion was that the correct estimation of β-sheet content is challenging because of the large spectral and ...

Cleavage of DFNA5 by caspase-3 during apoptosis mediates progression to secondary necrotic/pyroptotic cell death

open access: yesNature Communications, 2017
Apoptosis is a genetically regulated cell suicide programme mediated by activation of the effector caspases 3, 6 and 7. If apoptotic cells are not scavenged, they progress to a lytic and inflammatory phase called secondary necrosis.

A class of unbiased location invariant Hill-type estimators for heavy tailed distributions

open access: yes, 2008
Based on the methods provided in Caeiro and Gomes (2002) and Fraga Alves (2001), a new class of location invariant Hill-type estimators is derived in this paper. Its asymptotic distributional representation and asymptotic normality are presented, and the

Rank-based inference for bivariate extreme-value copulas

open access: yes, 2008
Consider a continuous random pair $(X,Y)$ whose dependence is characterized by an extreme-value copula with Pickands dependence function $A$. When the marginal distributions of $X$ and $Y$ are known, several consistent estimators of $A$ are available ...
