A moving window approach for nonparametric estimation of the conditional tail index

L. Gardes, S. Girard

We present a nonparametric family of estimators for the tail index of a Pareto-type distribution when covariate information is available. Our estimators are based on a weighted sum…

Functional nonparametric estimation of conditional extreme quantiles

L. Gardes, S. Girard, A. Lekina

We address the estimation of quantiles from heavy-tailed distributions when functional covariate information is available and in the case where the order of the quantile converges…

Estimation procedures for a semiparametric family of bivariate copulas

Cécile Amblard, Stéphane Girard

In this paper, we propose simple estimation methods dedicated to a semiparametric family of bivariate copulas. These copulas can be simply estimated through the estimation of their…

A Note on Sliced Inverse Regression with Regularizations

Caroline Bernard-Michel, Laurent Gardes, Stéphane Girard

In "Li, L. and Yin, X. (2008). Sliced Inverse Regression with Regularizations. Biometrics, 64(1):124--131" a ridge SIR estimator is introduced as the solution of a minimization pro…

Frontier estimation with local polynomials and high power-transformed data

Stéphane Girard, Pierre Jacob

We present a new method for estimating the frontier of a sample. The estimator is based on a local polynomial regression on the power-transformed data. We assume that the exponent…

Quasi-conjugate Bayes estimates for GPD parameters and application to heavy tails modelling

Jean Diebolt, Mhamed El-Aroui, Myriam Garrido +1

We present a quasi-conjugate Bayes approach for estimating Generalized Pareto Distribution (GPD) parameters, distribution tails and extreme quantiles within the Peaks-Over-Threshol…
