ParetoFamily: Generating function for Generalized Pareto families

In RobExtremes: Optimally Robust Estimation for Extreme Value Distributions

Generating function for Generalized Pareto families

Description

Generates an object of class "ParetoFamily" which represents a Pareto family.

Usage

ParetoFamily(Min = 1, shape = 0.5, trafo = NULL, start0Est = NULL,
                    withCentL2 = FALSE)

Arguments

Min	real: known/fixed threshold/location parameter
shape	positive real: shape parameter
trafo	matrix or NULL: transformation of the parameter
start0Est	startEstimator — if NULL log(2)/log(median/Min) is used
withCentL2	logical: shall L2 derivative be centered by substracting the E()? Defaults to FALSE, but higher accuracy can be achieved when set to TRUE.

Details

The slots of the corresponding L2 differentiable parameteric family are filled.

Value

Object of class "ParetoFamily"
