课程内容

Extreme value theory is concerned with describing the extreme values of an observed process and the predictions of future extremes in the process. In practice, you cannot rely on statistical modeling by normal, lognormal, Weibull, or many other commonly used distributions all the way out into extreme tails. This lecture series tends to provide modern extreme value theory and methodologies for solving problems arising from financial risk management, insurance, the environment, and other fields. There will be three parts in this lecture series. Part 1 mainly addresses basic notions, extremal types theorems, and modeling with generalized extreme value distributions. Part 2 covers point process approach and modeling issues. Part 3 discusses multivariate extremes and max-stable processes.
