Functional Peaks-Over-Threshold Analysis for Complex Extreme Events

Most current risk assessment for complex extreme events relies on catalogues of similar events, either historical or generated artificially. In the latter, no existing methods produce completely new events with mathematically justified extrapolation above ...

Contributions to Modelling Extremes of Spatial Data

Linda Frossard

The increasing interest in using statistical extreme value theory to analyse environmental data is mainly driven by the large impact extreme events can have. A difficulty with spatial data is that most existing inference methods for asymptotically justifie ...

Fréchet means in Wasserstein space

Yoav Zemel

This work studies the problem of statistical inference for Fréchet means in the Wasserstein space of measures on Euclidean spaces,

\mathcal W_2 ( \mathbb R^d )

. This question arises naturally from the problem of separating amplitude and phase variation i ...

Prediction of river water temperature: a comparison between a new family of hybrid models and statistical approaches

Aurélien Gallice, Sebastiano Piccolroaz, Marco Toffolon, Elisa Calamita

River water temperature is a key physical variable controlling several chemical, biological and ecological processes. Its reliable prediction is a main issue in many environmental applications, which however is hampered by data scarcity, when using data-de ...

Adaptive learning for stochastic generalized Nash equilibrium problems

Ali H. Sayed

This work examines a stochastic formulation of the generalized Nash equilibrium problem (GNEP) where agents are subject to randomness in the environment of unknown statistical distribution. Three stochastic gradient strategies are developed by relying on a ...

Space-time modelling of extreme events

Anthony Christopher Davison, Raphaël Huser

Max-stable processes are the natural analogues of the generalized extreme-value distribution when modelling extreme events in space and time. Under suitable conditions, these processes are asymptotically justified models for maxima of independent replicati ...

Statistical Inference in Positron Emission Tomography

Matthieu Martin Jean-André Simeoni

In this report, we investigate mathematical algorithms for image reconstruction in the context of positron emission tomography (a medical diagnosis technique). We first take inspiration from the physics of PET to design a mathematical model tailored to the ...

A Euclidean Likelihood Estimator for Bivariate Tail Dependence

Michal Warchol, Boris Oumow

The spectral measure plays a key role in the statistical modeling of multivariate extremes. Estimation of the spectral measure is a complex issue, given the need to obey a certain moment condition. We propose a Euclidean likelihood-based estimator for the ...

Statistical distributions of trace metal concentrations in the northwestern Mediterranean atmospheric aerosol

Thomas Robin

The concentrations of 11 crustal and anthropogenic trace metals (Li, Al, V, Mn, Fe, Co, Ni, Cu, Zn, Cd, Pb) were measured from 2006 to 2008 in the atmospheric aerosol at a northwestern Mediterranean coast (station of Cap Ferrat, situated on the southeaster ...

Bayesian Semiparametrics for Modelling the Clustering of Extreme Values

Thomas Lugrin

Extreme events can be statistically characterised as excesses of a high threshold. Inference in this case has to account for dependence between excesses. The peaks over threshold approach suggests pre-processing the series by defining clusters of successiv ...
