The Generalised Hyperbolic Skew Student’s t-distribution
The empirical distribution of daily returns from financial market variables such as exchange rates, equity prices, and interest rates, is often skewed, having one heavy, and one semiheavy, or more Gaussian-like tail. The NIG distribution, that has two semi-heavy tails, models skewness rather well, but only in cases where the tails are not too heavy. On the other hand, the skew Student’s t-distr...
متن کاملOn Maximisation of the Likelihood for the Generalised Gamma Distribution
We explore computational aspects of likelihood maximisation for the generalised gamma distribution. We improve on earlier work by being the first to formulate the iterative approach to solution of the likelihood score equations in such a way that the individual equations involved are uniquely solvable. We observe that the resulting algorithm is well-behaved and competitive with the application ...
متن کاملBayes Estimates of Flood Quantiles using the Generalised Gamma Distribution∗
In this paper, a Bayesian approach is proposed to estimate flood quantiles while taking statistical uncertainties into account. Predictive exceedance probabilities of annual maximum discharges are obtained using the threeand fourparameter generalised gamma distribution (without and with location parameter respectively). The parameters of this distribution are assumed to be random quantities rat...
متن کاملParametric Quantile Regression Based on the Generalised Gamma Distribution
We explore a particular fully parametric approach to quantile regression and show that this approach can be very successful. Motivated by the provision of reference charts, we work in the specific context of a positive response variable, whose conditional distribution is modelled by the generalised gamma distribution, and a single covariate, the dependence of parameters of the generalised gamma...
متن کاملThe Generalised Extreme Value Distribution as Utility Function
The idea that probability distribution functions could provide appropriate mathematical forms for utility functions representing risk aversion is of respectable antiquity. But the relatively few examples that have appeared in the economics literature have displayed quite restrictive risk aversion properties. This paper examines the potential of the generalised extreme value (GEV) distribution a...
