Calculates the MLEs of the rate parameter, and joint asymptotic covariance matrix of these MLEs over a range of thresholds as supplied by the user.
.Joint_MLE_Expl(x, u = NULL, k, q1, q2 = 1, param)
a list with
mle vector of MLEs above the supplied thresholds
cov joint asymptotic covariance matrix of these MLEs
vector of data
vector of thresholds. If not supplied, then k
thresholds between quantiles (q1
, q2
) will be used
number of thresholds to consider if u not supplied
lower quantile to consider for threshold
upper quantile to consider for threshold
character specifying 'InvRate'
or 'Rate'
for either inverse rate parameter / rate parameter, respectively
