Box-Cox Transformation on the Estimation of Extreme Value Index (EVI) and High Quantiles for Heavy-Tailed Distributions under Dependence Serials
摘要
The Box-Cox transformation is used to enhance data suitability for statistical analysis. When applied to extreme value statistics, it increases the convergence rate of several estimators for the tail index and mitigates their bias in the context of independent and identically distributed (i.i.d.) random variables. This paper focuses on investigating an estimator designed for bias reduction of the extreme value index estimators within the context of
