cievi: Confidence interval for extreme value index

In ercv: Fitting Tails by the Empirical Residual Coefficient of Variation

Description

Confidence interval for extreme value index estimation by Tm method.

Usage

cievi(nextremes, evi=0, conf.level=0.90, m=10, nsim=100) 

Arguments

nextremes	the number of upper extremes to be used.
evi	extreme value index. In particular, the shape parammeter of a generalized Pareto distribution.
conf.level	confidence level of the interval.
m	number of thresholds to do multiplicial test.
nsim	number of simulation.

Value

A numerical vector with two elements, containing the limits of the interval.
