Pathological Situation

The analytical form of general affine transform families with given maximum likelihood estimators for the affine parameters is determined. In this context, the simultaneous maximum likelihood equations of the affine parameters in the generalised Pareto distribution cannot have a common solution. This pathological situation is removed by extending it to a four parameter family, called Pareto type IV model.

Generalised Pareto Distribution

Motor Vehicle Insurance claims form a substantial component of Non life insurance claims and it is also growing with increasing number of vehicles on roads. It is also desirable to have an idea of what will be the likely claim amount for the coming future (Monthly, Quarterly, Yearly) based on past claim data. If one looks at the claim amount one can make out that there will be few large claims compared to large number of average and below average claims. Thus the distributions of claims do not follow a Symmetric pattern which makes it difficult using normal Statistical analysis. The methodology followed to analyze such data is known as Extreme value Analysis. Extreme value analysis is a general name which covers (i) Generalised Extreme Value (GEV) (ii) Generalised Pareto Distribution (GPD). Basically these techniques can deal with non symmetric shape of the distribution which is close to reality. Normally one fits a generalised Extreme Value distribution (GEV)/Generalised Pareto Distribution (GPD) and using parameters of fitted distribution future, forecast of likely losses can be predicted. Second method of analyzing such data is using methodology of simulation. Here we fit a Poisson distribution for arrival of claims and weibull/pareto/Lognormal for claim amount. Using Monte Carlo Simulation one combines both the distributions for future prediction of claim amount. This paper shows a comparison of the above techniques on motor vehicle claims data.

Generalised Pareto Distribution

Water is essential to all life-forms including various ecological, geological, hydrological, and climatic processes/activities. With changing climate, associated El Nino/Southern Oscillation (ENSO) events appear to stimulate highly uncertain patterns of precipitation (P) and evapotranspiration (EV) processes across the globe. Changes in P and EV patterns are highly sensitive to temperature variation and thus also affecting natural streamflow processes. This paper presents a novel suite of stochastic modelling approaches for associating streamflow sequences with climatic trends. The present work is built upon a stochastic modelling framework HMM_GP that integrates a Hidden Markov Model with a Generalised Pareto distribution for simulating synthetic flow sequences. The GP distribution within HMM_GP model is aimed to improve the model's efficiency in effectively simulating extreme events. This paper further investigated the potentials of Generalised Extreme Value Distribution (EVD) coupled with an HMM model within a regression-based scheme for associating impacts of precipitation and evapotranspiration processes on streamflow. The statistical characteristic of the pioneering modelling schematic has been thoroughly assessed for their suitability to generate/predict synthetic river flows sequences for a set of future climatic projections. The new modelling schematic can be adapted for a range of applications in the area of hydrology, agriculture and climate change.
