In this paper, we consider statistical inference for Poisson-Laguerre tessellations in $\mathbb{R}^d$. The object of interest is a distribution function $F$ which uniquely determines the intensity measure of the underlying Poisson process.…

Modelling and forecasting the occurrence of extreme events is especially difficult when the event process is nonstationary, with changes in both the rate at which extremes occur and the magnitude of the extremes when they occur. We approach…
