Minimum-Variance Reduced-Bias Tail Index and High Quantile Estimation
Heavy tailed-models are quite useful in many fields, like insurance, finance, telecommunications, internet traffic, among others, and it is often necessary to estimate a high quantile, i.e., a value that is exceeded with a probability p, small. The semiparametric estimation of this parameter relies...
