SUMMARY:Department seminar by Nan Zou\, Macquarie University
CLASS:PUBLIC
DESCRIPTION:MULTIVARIATE EXTREMES: BLOCK-MAXIMA VS PEAK-OVER-THRESHOLD” 
 \n\n-------------------------\n\nExtreme value theory is concerned with de
 scribing the tail behaviour\nof univariate and multivariate distributions.
  In the estimation of the\ndependence structure of the extremes of multipl
 e time series\, the\nblock maxima method and the peaks-over-threshold meth
 od are frequently\napplied. In this talk\, I will compare these methods an
 d propose some\nnew methodologies. This is joint work with A. Bücher and 
 S.\nVolgushev.\n\nNan is a lecturer in the Department of Mathematics and
  Statistics at\nMacquarie University in Sydney\, Australia.\n\nPLEASE NOTE
 : This seminar will be delivered via Zoom. Please check\nback later for 
 the link. \n\n*THIS SEMINAR WILL START AT 5:00 P.M.
