    Models for Extremal Dependence Derived from Skew‐symmetric Families

    No full text
    Skew-symmetric families of distributions such as the skew-normal and skew-t represent supersets of the normal and t distributions, and they exhibit richer classes of extremal behaviour. By defining a non-stationary skew-normal process, which allows the easy handling of positive definite, non-stationary covariance functions, we derive a new family of max-stable processes – the extremal skew-t process. This process is a superset of non-stationary processes that include the stationary extremal-t processes. We provide the spectral representation and the resulting angular densities of the extremal skew-t process and illustrate its practical implementation

    Extremal properties of the multivariate extended skew-normal distribution, Part B

    No full text
    The skew-normal and related families are flexible and asymmetric parametric models suitable for modelling a diverse range of systems. We show that the multivariate maximum of a high-dimensional extended skew-normal random sample has asymptotically independent components and derive the speed of convergence of the joint tail. To describe the possible dependence among the components of the multivariate maximum, we show that under appropriate conditions an approximate multivariate extreme-value distribution that leads to a rich dependence structure can be derived

    Extremal properties of the univariate extended skew-normal distribution, Part A

    No full text
    We consider the extremal properties of the highly flexible univariate extended skewnormal distribution. We derive the well-known Mills’ inequalities and Mills’ ratio for the extended skew-normal distribution and establish the asymptotic extreme-value distribution for the maximum of samples drawn from this distributio

    Estimation and uncertainty quantification for extreme quantile regions

    No full text
    Estimation of extreme quantile regions, spaces in which future extreme events can occur with a given low probability, even beyond the range of the observed data, is an important task in the analysis of extremes. Existing methods to estimate such regions are available, but do not provide any measures of estimation uncertainty. We develop univariate and bivariate schemes for estimating extreme quantile regions under the Bayesian paradigm that outperforms existing approaches and provides natural measures of quantile region estimate uncertainty. We examine the method’s performance in controlled simulation studies. We illustrate the applicability of the proposed method by analysing high bivariate quantiles for pairs of pollutants, conditionally on different temperature gradations, recorded in Milan, Italy
