Multivariate Tail Estimation: Conditioning on an extreme event

Methodology 2015-02-26 v1

Abstract

We consider regularly varying random vectors. Our goal is to estimate in a non-parametric way some characteristics related to conditioning on an extreme event, like the tail dependence coefficient. We introduce a quasi-spectral decomposition that allow to improve efficiency of estimators. Asymptotic normality of estimators is based on weak convergence of tail empirical processes. Theoretical results are supported by simulation studies.
