摘要
For the estimation of the probability of a tail set beyond the range of the observations an estimator based on Pareto tails can be used, We calculate the optimum number of upper order statistics used for this estimator, in the mean square error sense. Moreover, an adaptive procedure is given to find this optimum in a practical situation. (C) 2002 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
