This new extreme conformal prediction framework provides informative prediction
    intervals at the high-confidence levels for which classical conformal methods fail.
    In applications with potentially high-impact events, a very high level of confidence is often required for predictions.
    If that level is too large relative to the amount of data used for calibration, classical
    conformal methods provide infinitely wide, thus, uninformative prediction intervals.
    Our extreme conformal procedure bridges extreme value statistics and conformal prediction
    to provide reliable and informative prediction intervals with high-confidence coverage,
    which can be constructed using any black-box extreme quantile regression method.
    A weighted version of the approach can account for nonstationary data.
    The methodology was introduced in Pasche, Lam, and Engelke (2026) <doi:10.1007/s10687-026-00536-9>.

An index measuring the amount of information brought by forecasts for extreme events, subject to calibration, is computed. This index is originally designed for weather or climate forecasts, but it may be used in other forecasting contexts. This is the implementation of the index in Taillardat et al. (2019) <arXiv:1905.04022>.

Fits extreme value mixture models, which are models for tails not requiring selection of a threshold, for continuous data. It includes functions for model comparison, estimation of quantity of interest in extreme value analysis and plotting.

A set of procedures for estimating risks related to extreme events via risk measures such as Expectile, Value-at-Risk, etc. is provided. Estimation methods for univariate independent observations and temporal dependent observations are available. The methodology is extended to the case of independent multidimensional observations.  The statistical inference is performed through parametric and non-parametric estimators. Inferential procedures such as confidence intervals, confidence regions and hypothesis testing are obtained by exploiting the asymptotic theory.
