In actuarial practice, the modeling of total losses tied to a certain policy is a nontrivial task due to complex distributional features. In the recent literature, the application of the Dirichlet process mixture for insurance loss has been proposed to eliminate the risk of model...

We analyze a large panel of units grouped by shared extreme value indices (EVIs) and aim to identify these unknown groups. To achieve this, we order the Hill estimates of individual EVIs and segment them by minimizing the total squared distance between each estimate and its corresponding group...
