gev.rl.delta: MLE with return level and delta method SE

Description

Internal function that computes GEV MLE using both constrained optimization (solnp) and ismev::gev.fit, selects the better fit, and returns the covariance matrix for delta method SE.

Usage

gev.rl.delta(data, ntry = 5, quant)

Value

A list containing:

nllh

Negative log-likelihood

mle

MLE estimates (mu, sigma, xi) in Hosking style

qua.mle

Quantile estimates at quant probabilities

data

Input data

cov

3x3 covariance matrix from MLE

quant

Input quantile probabilities

Arguments

data

Numeric vector of data.

ntry

Number of optimization attempts. Default is 5.

quant

Numeric vector of probabilities for quantile estimation.
