Tm: Multiple threshold test for a GPD

Description

Multiple threshold test for a GPD.

Usage

Tm(data, threshold = NA, nextremes = NA, omit = 16, evi = NA, m = 10, nsim = 100)

Arguments

data

a numeric vector.

threshold

a threshold value (either this or nextremes must be given but not both).

nextremes

the number of upper extremes to be used (either this or threshold must be given but not both).

omit

the minimum required number of upper extremes for computing residual statistics.

evi

extreme value index. In particular, the shape parammeter of a generalized Pareto distribution.

m

number of thresholds to do multiplicial test.

nsim

number of simulations.

Value

A data.frame containing the following columns:

  • nextremes the number of upper extremes to be used.

  • cvopt optimal coefficient of variation for the tail.

  • evi the corresponding tail index for optimal coefficient of variation if evi parameter is NA.

  • tms the statistic of the tail index test.

  • pvalue p-value associated to tms.
