Is there a cap on longevity? A statistical review
Léo R. Belzile, Anthony C. Davison, Jutta Gampe +2
There is sustained and widespread interest in understanding the limit, if any, to the human lifespan. Apart from its intrinsic and biological interest, changes in survival in old a…
Human mortality at extreme age
Léo R. Belzile, Anthony C. Davison, Holger Rootzén +1
We use a combination of extreme value theory, survival analysis and computer-intensive methods to analyze the mortality of Italian and French semi-supercentenarians for whom there…
Real-time prediction of severe influenza epidemics using Extreme Value Statistics
Maud Thomas, Holger Rootzén
Each year, seasonal influenza epidemics cause hundreds of thousands of deaths worldwide and put high loads on health care systems. A main concern for resource planning is the risk…
Correction note to "Limit Theorems for Empirical Processes of Cluster Functionals" [arXiv:0910.0343]
Holger Drees, Holger Rootzén
We correct an error in a technical lemma of Drees and Rootzén (2010) [arXiv:0910.0343] and discuss consequences for applications.
Error distributions for random grid approximations of multidimensional stochastic integrals
Carl Lindberg, Holger Rootzén
This paper proves joint convergence of the approximation error for several stochastic integrals with respect to local Brownian semimartingales, for nonequidistant and random grids.…
Limit theorems for empirical processes of cluster functionals
Holger Drees, Holger Rootzén
Let be a triangular array of row-wise stationary -valued random variables. We use a "blocks method" to define clusters of ext…
Models for dependent extremes using stable mixtures
Anne-Laure Fougères, John P. Nolan, Holger Rootzén
This paper unifies and extends results on a class of multivariate Extreme Value (EV) models studied by Hougaard, Crowder, and Tawn. In these models both unconditional and condition…
