Is There a Link between Suckling and Manipulation Behavior during Rearing in Pigs?
Animals, 2021 Inadequate possibilities to perform oral manipulation behavior for pigs can lead to misdirection and thus tail biting. Our study aimed to analyze manipulation behaviors of weaner pigs with focus on tail biting and the relationship with agonistic ...

Dual Divergence Estimators of the Tail Index [PDF]
ISRN Probability and Statistics, 2012 The main purpose of the present paper is to propose a new estimator of the tail index using -divergences and the duality technique. These estimators are explored with respect to robustness through the influence function approach. The empirical performances of the proposed estimators are illustrated by simulation.

Tail Risk in Commercial Property Insurance
Risks, 2014 We present some new evidence on the tail distribution of commercial property losses based on a recently constructed dataset on large commercial risks. The dataset is based on contributions from Lloyd’s of London syndicates, and provides information on ...

Tail Bounds for the Wiener Index of Random Trees [PDF]
Discrete Mathematics & Theoretical Computer Science, 2007 Upper and lower bounds for the tail probabilities of the Wiener index of random binary search trees are given. For upper bounds the moment generating function of the vector of Wiener index and internal path length is estimated.

Inferring heavy tails of flood distributions through hydrograph recession analysis [PDF]
Hydrology and Earth System Sciences, 2023 Floods are often disastrous due to underestimation of the magnitude of rare events. Underestimation commonly happens when the magnitudes of floods follow a heavy-tailed distribution, but this behavior is not recognized and thus neglected for flood hazard

An Integrated Functional Weissman Estimator for Conditional Extreme Quantiles
Revstat Statistical Journal, 2019 It is well-known that estimating extreme quantiles, namely, quantiles lying beyond the range of the available data, is a nontrivial problem that involves the analysis of tail behavior through the estimation of the extreme-value index.
