Abstract
Abstract We introduce a location-scale model for conditional heavy-tailed distributions when the covariate is deterministic. First, nonparametric estimators of the location and scale functions are introduced. Second, an estimator of the conditional extreme-value index is derived. The asymptotic properties of the estimators are established under mild assumptions and their finite sample properties are illustrated both on simulated and real data.
期刊介绍：
The journal Dependence Modeling aims at providing a medium for exchanging results and ideas in the area of multivariate dependence modeling. It is an open access fully peer-reviewed journal providing the readers with free, instant, and permanent access to all content worldwide. Dependence Modeling is listed by Web of Science (Emerging Sources Citation Index), Scopus, MathSciNet and Zentralblatt Math. The journal presents different types of articles: -"Research Articles" on fundamental theoretical aspects, as well as on significant applications in science, engineering, economics, finance, insurance and other fields. -"Review Articles" which present the existing literature on the specific topic from new perspectives. -"Interview articles" limited to two papers per year, covering interviews with milestone personalities in the field of Dependence Modeling. The journal topics include (but are not limited to): -Copula methods -Multivariate distributions -Estimation and goodness-of-fit tests -Measures of association -Quantitative risk management -Risk measures and stochastic orders -Time series -Environmental sciences -Computational methods and software -Extreme-value theory -Limit laws -Mass Transportations
