On the tail index estimation of an autoregressive Pareto process

Marta Ferreira (2013)

Discussiones Mathematicae Probability and Statistics

Similarity:

In this paper we consider an autoregressive Pareto process which can be used as an alternative to heavy tailed MARMA. We focus on the tail behavior and prove that the tail empirical quantile function can be approximated by a Gaussian process. This result allows to derive a class of consistent and asymptotically normal estimators for the shape parameter. We will see through simulation that the usual estimation procedure based on an i.i.d. setting may fall short of the desired precision. ...

On an estimation problem for type I censored spatial Poisson processes

Jan Hurt, Petr Lachout, Dietmar Pfeifer (2001)

Kybernetika

Similarity:

In this paper we consider the problem of estimating the intensity of a spatial homogeneous Poisson process if a part of the observations (quadrat counts) is censored. The actual problem has occurred during a court case when one of the authors was a referee for the defense.

Nonparametric estimation of the jump rate for non-homogeneous marked renewal processes

Romain Azaïs, François Dufour, Anne Gégout-Petit (2013)

Annales de l'I.H.P. Probabilités et statistiques

Similarity:

This paper is devoted to the nonparametric estimation of the jump rate and the cumulative rate for a general class of non-homogeneous marked renewal processes, defined on a separable metric space. In our framework, the estimation needs only one observation of the process within a long time. Our approach is based on a generalization of the multiplicative intensity model, introduced by Aalen in the seventies. We provide consistent estimators of these two functions, under some assumptions...

Extreme values and kernel estimates of point processes boundaries

Stéphane Girard, Pierre Jacob (2004)

ESAIM: Probability and Statistics

Similarity:

We present a method for estimating the edge of a two-dimensional bounded set, given a finite random set of points drawn from the interior. The estimator is based both on a Parzen-Rosenblatt kernel and extreme values of point processes. We give conditions for various kinds of convergence and asymptotic normality. We propose a method of reducing the negative bias and edge effects, illustrated by some simulations.
