Description Details Author(s) References Examples
The Semi-Parametric Distribution is a piecewise distribution constructed by parametrically modelling the tails of the distribution using an appropriate distribution (e.g. generalized pareto) and the interior by kernel methods. The package implements fit, distribution, density, quantile and random number generation. Currently, only the generalized pareto distribution is implemented for modelling the tails, but the package can easily be extended.

The main functionality of the package is contained in the SPD
class, created by calling spdfit
. Methods for density
dspd
, distribution pspd
, quantile qspd
and random number generation rspd
exist and take 2 main arguments,
the input value and the fitted object.
The spd package uses the "bkde"
function from the package KernSmooth for
the kernel interior fit, while for the tail fit borrows from the fExtremes
package and implements a locally modified copy of the gpd functionality and
methods.
