Bias-reduced Extreme Quantile Estimators of Weibull Tail-distributions
In this paper, we consider the problem of estimating an extreme quantile of a Weibull tail-distribution. The new extreme quantile estimator has a reduced bias compared to the more classical ones proposed in the literature. It is based on an exponential regression model that was introduced in Diebolt et al. (2008). The asymptotic normality of the extreme quantile estimator is established. We als...
متن کاملNegative Weibull tail-distributions
We propose a new family of distributions referred to as Weibull taildistributions. This family is designed to model left tails with exponential behavior. The exponent can be estimated using inference procedures adapted from the Weibull tail-distributions literature. Let us define a negative Weibull tail-distribution through its distribution function by: F (x) = exp {
متن کاملA stability property of Weibull tail-distributions
We exhibit a new stability property of Weibull tail-distributions. It is shown that the power of a random variable with a Weibull tail-distribution still has a Weibull tail-distribution and the associated Weibull tail-coefficient is exhibited. Weibull tail-distributions are defined through their distribution function by:
متن کاملEstimating extreme quantiles under random truncation
The goal of this paper is to provide estimators of the tail index and extreme quantiles of a heavy-tailed random variable when it is righttruncated. The weak consistency and asymptotic normality of the estimators are established. The finite sample performance of our estimators is illustrated on a simulation study and we showcase our estimators on a real set of failure data. keywords: Asymptotic...
متن کاملEstimation of extreme quantiles from heavy and light tailed distributions
In [18], a new family of distributions is introduced, depending on two parameters τ and θ, which encompasses Pareto-type distributions as well as Weibull tail-distributions. Estimators for θ and extreme quantiles are also proposed, but they both depend on the unknown parameter τ , making them useless in practical situations. In this paper, we propose an estimator of τ which is independent of θ....
