Estimating the tail index of Pareto-type distributions from geometric records
Martín Alcalde, Raúl Gouet, Miguel Lafuente +2
In this paper, we develop a novel inferential approach based on geometric records for estimating the tail index of heavy-tailed distributions. We construct a maximum likelihood est…

Estimating hazard rates from -records in discrete distributions
Martín Alcalde, Miguel Lafuente, F. Javier López +2
This paper focuses on nonparametric statistical inference of the hazard rate function of discrete distributions based on -record data. We derive the explicit expression of the m…
