Functions for Extreme Value Distributions
Extends simulation, distribution, quantile and density functions to univariate and multivariate parametric extreme value distributions, and provides fitting functions which calculate maximum likelihood estimates for univariate and bivariate maxima models, and for univariate and bivariate threshold models.
README
The evd package extends simulation, distribution, quantile and density functions to parametric extreme value distributions, and provides fitting functions which calculate maximum likelihood estimates for univariate and bivariate maxima models, and for univariate and bivariate threshold models. The file CHANGES documents changes from previous versions. The users guide (in pdf) is in the `doc' directory. A vignette on multivariate extremes is also included. A reference manual containing the help files can be downloaded from CRAN. The package contains the following (user-level) functions. All comments, criticisms and queries are gratefully received.
