Moderate deviations for stable Markov chains and regression models.
Estimation of second order parameters using probability weighted moments
The P.O.T. method (Peaks Over Threshold) consists in using the generalized Pareto distribution (GPD) as an approximation for the distribution of excesses over a high threshold. In this work, we use a refinement of this approximation in order to estimate second order parameters of the model using the method of probability-weighted moments (PWM): in particular, this leads to the introduction of a new estimator for the second order parameter , which will be compared to other recent estimators through...
