The extremal index of a dependent stationary pulse load process
Observing a load process above high thresholds, modeling it as a pulse process with random occurrence times and magnitudes, and extrapolating life-time maximum or design loads from the data is a common task in structural reliability analyses. In this paper, we consider a stationary live load sequence that arrive according to a dependent point process and allow for a weakened mixing-type depende...
متن کاملExtremal Behaviour of Stationary Processes: the Calibration Technique in the Extremal Index Estimation
Classical extreme value methods were derived when the underlying process is assumed to be a sequence of independent random variables. However when observations are taken along the time and/or the space the independence is an unrealistic assumption. A parameter that arises in this situation, characterizing the degree of local dependence in the extremes of a stationary series, is the extremal ind...
متن کاملHow to compute the extremal index of stationary random fields
We present local dependence conditions for stationary random fields under which the extremal index and the asymptotic distribution of the maximum M(n1,...,nd) can be calculated from the joint distribution of a finite number s1s2 of variables. keywords: Extremal index, local and long range dependence, random field.
متن کاملThe Extremal Index for a Random Tessellation
Let m be a random tessellation in R, d ≥ 1, observed in the window Wρ = ρ1/d[0, 1], ρ > 0, and let f be a geometrical characteristic. We investigate the asymptotic behaviour of the maximum of f(C) over all cells C ∈ m with nucleus in Wρ as ρ goes to infinity. When the normalized maximum converges, we show that its asymptotic distribution depends on the so-called extremal index. Two examples of ...
متن کاملCharacterization and Estimation of the Multivariate Extremal Index
The multivariate extremal index has been introduced by Nandagopalan as a measure of the clustering among the extreme values of a multivariate stationary process. In this paper, we derive some additional properties and use those to construct a statistical estimation scheme. Central to the discussion is a class of processes we call M 4 processes, which are characterized by means of a multivariate...
