Pareto-type distributions are extreme value distributions for which the extreme value index γ0. Classical estimators for γ0, like the Hill estimator, tend to overestimate this parameter in the presence of outliers. The empirical influence function plot, which displays the influence that each...

A typical added variable plot is a commonly used plot in assessing the accuracy of a normal linear model. This plot is often used to evaluate the effect of adding an explanatory variable into the model and to detect possibly high leverage points or influential observations on the added variable....
