SUMMARY:Department seminar by Nan Zou\, Macquarie University 
CLASS:PUBLIC
DESCRIPTION:Summary \n\nMULTIVARIATE EXTREMES: BLOCK-MAXIMA VS PEAK-OVER-TH
 RESHOLD” \n\n-------------------------\n\nExtreme value theory is conce
 rned with describing the tail behaviour\nof univariate and multivariate di
 stributions. In the estimation of the\ndependence structure of the extreme
 s of multiple time series\, the\nblock maxima method and the peaks-over-th
 reshold method are frequently\napplied. In this talk\, I will compare thes
 e methods and propose some\nnew methodologies. This is joint work with A. 
 Bücher and S.\nVolgushev.\n\nNan is a lecturer in the Department of Mat
 hematics and Statistics at\nMacquarie University in Sydney\, Australia.\n\
 nPLEASE NOTE: This seminar will be delivered via Zoom. Please check\nbac
