چکیده

We present local dependence conditions for stationary random fields under which the extremal index and the asymptotic distribution of the maximum M(n1,...,nd) can be calculated from the joint distribution of a finite number s1s2 of variables. keywords: Extremal index, local and long range dependence, random field.

A Note on the Extremal Index for Space–time Processes

Let {X(s, t), s = (s1, s2) ∈ R2, t ∈ R} be a stationary random field defined over a discrete lattice. In this paper, we consider a set of domain of attraction criteria giving the notion of extremal index for random fields. Together with the extremal-types theorem given by Leadbetter and Rootzen (1997), this will give a characterization of the limiting distribution of the maximum of such random ...

Computing the extremal index of special Markov chains and queues

A selection of these reports is available in PostScript form at the Faculty's anonymous ftp-Abstract We consider the extremal behaviour of Markov chains. Rootz en 18] gives conditions for stationary, regenerative sequences so that the normalized process of level exceedances converges in distribution to a compound Poisson process. He also provides expressions for the extremal index and the compo...

Subsampling techniques and the Jackknife methodology in the estimation of the extremal index

For a sequence of independent, identically distributed random variables any limiting point process for the time normalized exceedances of high levels is a Poisson process. However, for stationary dependent sequences, under general local and asymptotic dependence restrictions, any limiting point process for the time normalized exceedances of high levels is a compound Poisson process, i.e., there...

Random Projection-Based Anderson-Darling Test for Random Fields

In this paper, we present the Anderson-Darling (AD) and Kolmogorov-Smirnov (KS) goodness of fit statistics for stationary and non-stationary random fields. Namely, we adopt an easy-to-apply method based on a random projection of a Hilbert-valued random field onto the real line R, and then, applying the well-known AD and KS goodness of fit tests. We conclude this paper by studying the behavior o...

Extremal Behaviour of Stationary Processes: the Calibration Technique in the Extremal Index Estimation

Classical extreme value methods were derived when the underlying process is assumed to be a sequence of independent random variables. However when observations are taken along the time and/or the space the independence is an unrealistic assumption. A parameter that arises in this situation, characterizing the degree of local dependence in the extremes of a stationary series, is the extremal ind...
