Bayesian approach to extreme-value statistics based on conditional maximum-entropy method

preprint2018arXivOpen access

Abstract

Recently, the conditional maximum-entropy method (abbreviated as C-MaxEnt) has been proposed for selecting priors in Bayesian statistics in a very simple way. Here, it is examined for extreme-value statistics. For the Weibull type as an explicit example, it is shown how C-MaxEnt can give rise to a prior satisfying Jeffreys' rule.
