Extreme value theory
 Pelinka, Adam ; Čabla, Adam (advisor) ; Gerthofer, Michal (referee)
Extreme value theory is a modern statistical method for modelling events with a very low probability. During the analysis, we deal with convergence of distribution of these extremal events to their limit distributions. These distributions are generalized extreme value distribution and generalized Pareto distribution, which estimate tails of empirical probability distribution, where extremal events occur. In the last years, extreme value theory is used in many fields of study, e.g. in estimating financial risk or in estimating size of floods. In this work, two methods of modelling extremal events are presented - block maxima method and peaks over threshold method. Both methods are used during the real data analysis of daily discharge of river Vltava and estimated models are summarized. Although both used methods give slightly different results, choice of the appropriate model is not clear.
