@brief Peaks over Threshold Method for Quantile and Tail Mean Estimation
According to the theorem of Pickands-Balkema-de Haan, the distribution function \f$F_u(x)\f$ of
the excesses \f$x\f$ over some sufficiently high threshold \f$u\f$ of a distribution function \f$F(x)\f$
may be approximated by a generalized Pareto distribution
\f[
G_{\xi,\beta}(x) =
\left\{
\begin{array}{ll}
\beta^{-1}\left(1+\frac{\xi x}{\beta}\right)^{-1/\xi-1} & \textrm{if }\xi\neq0\\
\beta^{-1}\exp\left(-\frac{x}{\beta}\right) & \textrm{if }\xi=0,
\end{array}
\right.
\f]
with suitable parameters \f$\xi\f$ and \f$\beta\f$ that can be estimated, e.g., with the method of moments, cf.
Hosking and Wallis (1987),
\f[
\begin{array}{lll}
\hat{\xi} & = & \frac{1}{2}\left[1-\frac{(\hat{\mu}-u)^2}{\hat{\sigma}^2}\right]\\
\hat{\beta} & = & \frac{\hat{\mu}-u}{2}\left[\frac{(\hat{\mu}-u)^2}{\hat{\sigma}^2}+1\right],
\end{array}
\f]
\f$\hat{\mu}\f$ and \f$\hat{\sigma}^2\f$ being the empirical mean and variance of the samples over
the threshold \f$u\f$. Equivalently, the distribution function
\f$F_u(x-u)\f$ of the exceedances \f$x-u\f$ can be approximated by
\f$G_{\xi,\beta}(x-u)=G_{\xi,\beta,u}(x)\f$. Since for \f$x\geq u\f$ the distribution function \f$F(x)\f$
can be written as
\f[
F(x) = [1 - \P(X \leq u)]F_u(x - u) + \P(X \leq u)
\f]
and the probability \f$\P(X \leq u)\f$ can be approximated by the empirical distribution function
\f$F_n(u)\f$ evaluated at \f$u\f$, an estimator of \f$F(x)\f$ is given by
\f[
\widehat{F}(x) = [1 - F_n(u)]G_{\xi,\beta,u}(x) + F_n(u).
\f]
It can be shown that \f$\widehat{F}(x)\f$ is a generalized
Pareto distribution \f$G_{\xi,\bar{\beta},\bar{u}}(x)\f$ with \f$\bar{\beta}=\beta[1-F_n(u)]^{\xi}\f$
and \f$\bar{u}=u-\bar{\beta}\left\{[1-F_n(u)]^{-\xi}-1\right\}/\xi\f$. By inverting \f$\widehat{F}(x)\f$,
one obtains an estimator for the \f$\alpha\f$-quantile,
\f[
\hat{q}_{\alpha} = \bar{u} + \frac{\bar{\beta}}{\xi}\left[(1-\alpha)^{-\xi}-1\right],
\f]
and similarly an estimator for the (coherent) tail mean,
\f[
\widehat{CTM}_{\alpha} = \hat{q}_{\alpha} - \frac{\bar{\beta}}{\xi-1}(1-\alpha)^{-\xi},
\f]
cf. McNeil and Frey (2000).
Note that in case extreme values of the left tail are fitted, the distribution is mirrored with respect to the
\f$y\f$ axis such that the left tail can be treated as a right tail. The computed fit parameters thus define
the Pareto distribution that fits the mirrored left tail. When quantities like a quantile or a tail mean are
computed using the fit parameters obtained from the mirrored data, the result is mirrored back, yielding the
correct result.
