Nonparametric asymptotic confidence intervals for extreme quantiles
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper, we propose new asymptotic confidence intervals for extreme quantiles, that is, quantiles located outside the range of available data. We restrict ourselves to situation where underlying distribution is heavy-tailed. While are mostly constructed around a pivotal quantity, consider here an alternative approach based on order statistics sampled from uniform distribution. The convergence coverage probability nominal one established under classical second-order condition. finite sample behavior also examined and our methodology applied real dataset.

Distribution Free Confidence Intervals for Quantiles Based on Extreme Order Statistics in a Multi-Sampling Plan
Extended Abstract. Let Xi1 ,..., Xini ,i=1,2,3,....,k be independent random samples from distribution $F^{alpha_i}$، i=1,...,k, where F is an absolutely continuous distribution function and $alpha_i>0$ Also, suppose that these samples are independent. Let Mi,ni and M'i,ni respectively, denote the maximum and minimum of the ith sa...
متن کاملImproved confidence intervals for quantiles
We derive the Edgeworth expansion for the studentized version of the kernel quantile estimator. Inverting the expansion allows us to get very accurate confidence intervals for the pth quantile under general conditions. The results are applicable in practice to improve inference for quantiles when sample sizes are moderate.
متن کاملConfidence Intervals for Lower Quantiles Based on Two-Sample Scheme
In this paper, a new two-sampling scheme is proposed to construct appropriate confidence intervals for the lower population quantiles. The confidence intervals are determined in the parametric and nonparametric set up and the optimality problem is discussed in each case. Finally, the proposed procedure is illustrated via a real data set.
متن کاملNonparametric Confidence Intervals Based on Extreme Bootstrap Percentiles
Monte Carlo approximation of standard bootstrap confidence intervals relies on the drawing of a large number, B say, of bootstrap resamples. Conventional choice of B is often made on the order of 1,000. While this choice may prove to be more than sufficient for some cases, it may be far from adequate for others. A new approach is suggested to construct confidence intervals based on extreme boot...
متن کاملConfidence Intervals for Nonparametric Regression
In non-parametric function estimation, providing a confidence interval with the right coverage is a challenging problem. This is especially the case when the underlying function has a wide range of unknown degrees of smoothness. Here we propose two methods of constructing an average coverage confidence interval built from block shrinkage estimation methods. One is based on the James-Stein shrin...
