Modeling Annual Extreme Precipitation in China Using the Generalized Extreme Value Distribution
Extreme precipitation events are the major causes of severe floods in China. In this study, four time series of daily, 2-day, 5-day, and 10-day annual maximum precipitation from 1951 to 2000 at 651 weather stations in China were analyzed. The generalized extreme value (GEV) distribution was used, to model the annual extreme precipitation events at each station. The GEV distribution was also mod...
متن کاملGeneralized Extreme Value Distribution and Extreme Economic Value at Risk (EE-VaR) October 2007 Generalized Extreme Value Distribution and Extreme Economic Value at Risk (EE-VaR)
Ait-Sahalia and Lo (2000) and Panigirtzoglou and Skiadopoulos (2004) have argued that Economic VaR (E-VaR), calculated under the option market implied risk neutral density is a more relevant measure of risk than historically based VaR. As industry practice requires VaR at high confidence level of 99%, we propose Extreme Economic Value at Risk (EE-VaR) as a new risk measure, based on the General...
متن کاملModelling Extreme Temperature in Malaysia Using Generalized Extreme Value Distribution
Extreme temperature of several stations in Malaysia is modelled by fitting the monthly maximum to the Generalized Extreme Value (GEV) distribution. The Mann-Kendall (MK) test suggests a non-stationary model. Two models are considered for stations with trend and the Likelihood Ratio test is used to determine the best-fitting model. Results show that half of the stations favour a model which is l...
متن کاملScore Normalization in Multimodal Systems using Generalized Extreme Value Distribution
In multimodal biometric systems, human identification is performed by fusing information in different ways like sensor-level, feature-level, score-level, rank-level and decision-level. Score-level fusion is preferred over other levels of fusion because of its low complexity and sufficient availability of information for fusion. However, the scores obtained from different unimodal systems are he...
متن کاملGeneralized extreme value distribution - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In probability theory and statistics, the generalized extreme value distribution (GEV) is a family of continuous probability distributions developed within extreme value theory to combine the Gumbel, Fréchet and Weibull families also known as type I, II and III extreme value distributions. Its importance arises from the fact that it is the limit distribution of the maxima of a sequence of indep...
