A class of unbiased location invariant Hill-type estimators for heavy tailed distributions

Jiaona Li, Zuoxiang Peng, Saralees Nadarajah

Based on the methods provided in Caeiro and Gomes (2002) and Fraga Alves (2001), a new class of location invariant Hill-type estimators is derived in this paper. Its asymptotic dis…

Asymptotic tail properties of the distributions in the class of dispersion models

Alexandre B. Simas, Gauss M. Cordeiro, Saralees Nadarajah

The class of dispersion models introduced by Jørgensen (1997b) covers many known distributions such as the normal, Student t, gamma, inverse Gaussian, hyperbola, von-Mises, among o…

The distribution of the maximum of a first order moving average: the discrete case

Christopher S. Withers, Saralees Nadarajah

We give the distribution of , the maximum of a sequence of observations from a moving average of order 1. Solutions are first given in terms of repeated integrals and then…
