Asymptotic behaviour of the probability-weighted moments and penultimate approximation

Jean DieboltArmelle GuillouRym Worms — 2003

ESAIM: Probability and Statistics

The P.O.T. (Peaks-Over-Threshold) approach consists of using the Generalized Pareto Distribution (GPD) to approximate the distribution of excesses over a threshold. We use the probability-weighted moments to estimate the parameters of the approximating distribution. We study the asymptotic behaviour of these estimators (in particular their asymptotic bias) and also the functional bias of the GPD as an estimate of the distribution function of the excesses. We adapt penultimate approximation results...
