摘要
We give expansions in inverse powers of the sample size n for the joint moments and cumulants of the extremes when sampling from a uniform distribution. Estimates of low bias are given for smooth functions of the end points and their performance illustrated by simulations. Some extensions are given for general bivariate extreme estimates.
