Abstract

It is well known that the max-stable laws under power normalization attract more distributions than that under linear normalization. This fact practically means that the classical linear model (L-model) may fail to fit the given extreme data, while the power model (P-model) succeeds to do that. The main object of this paper is developing the modeling of extreme values via P-model by suggesting a simple technique to obtain a parallel estimator of the extreme value index (EVI) in the P-model for every known estimator to the corresponding parameter in L-mode. An application of this technique yields two classes of moment and moment ratio estimators for EVI in the P-model. The performances of these estimators are assessed via a simulation study. Moreover, an efficient criterion for comparing the L and P models is proposed to choose the best model when the two models successfully work.
