Description
| - The aim of the paper is to introduce the distribution sensitive tail estimation procedure, which is easy to implement for various distributions. Here we construct distribution-sensitive estimators based on the Hills procedure using score moment estimators for other heavy-tailed distributions (Pareto, Fréchet, Burr, log-gama, inverse gamma, etc.), and to study their statistical properties, both theoretically (e.g consistency, asymptotical distribution) and by means of simulation experiments (e.g. comparisons of exact effectiveness of our method for different heavy tailed distributions). A specific problem is finding of an optimal threshold k, say, yielding a trade off in between of variance and bias of the Hill estimator. Simulation results by Embrechts et al. (1997) showed that the Hill estimator and its alternatives work well over large ranges of values for k in the case of Pareto distribution. However, Hill estimator is often giving wrong results for distributions different from the Pareto one. Their %22Hill horror plots%22 actually show deviations of the Hill estimates trending farther away from the true value of the tail index as k is increased. In this paper we illustrate t-Hill. We also quantify the robustness and compare efficiency with other competitors. The paper is organized as follows. First section is introduction. In section 2 we recall the theory of scalar score. In section 3 we discussed the t-Hill estimator, introduced firstly in Stehlík et al. (2011). The section 4 comparing t-Hill and Hill estimators follows. Therein contamination of underling data is controlled by means of score variance of Pareto distribution. Comparisons show that t-Hill estimator outperforms Hill estimator. In section 5 we introduce the t-Hill plot. We end with powers of selected tests for normality against Pareto distribution.
