gpstat
Compute statistics of the generalized Pareto distribution.
[m, v] = gpstat (shape, scale, location)
returns the mean and variance of the generalized Pareto distribution with
shape, scale, and location parameeters.
The default value for location is 0.
When shape = 0 and location = 0, the generalized Pareto
distribution is equivalent to the exponential distribution. When
shape > 0 and location = scale / shape,
the generalized Pareto distribution is equivalent to the Pareto distribution.
The mean of the generalized Pareto distribution is not finite when
shape >= 1, and the variance is not finite when
shape >= 1/2. When shape >= 0, the generalized
Pareto distribution has positive density for x > location,
or, when shape < 0, for
0 <= (x - location) / scale <= -1 / shape.
