The areal modeling of the extremes of a natural process such as rainfall or temperature is important in environmental statistics; for example, understanding extreme areal rainfall is crucial in flood protection. This article reviews recent progress in the statistical modeling of spatial extremes, starting with sketches of the necessary elements of extreme value statistics and geostatistics. The main types of statistical models thus far proposed, based on latent variables, on copulas and on spatial max-stable processes, are described and then are compared by application to a data set on rainfall in Switzerland. Whereas latent variable modeling allows a better fit to marginal distributions, it fits the joint distributions of extremes poorly, so appropriately-chosen copula or max-stable models seem essential for successful spatial modeling of extremes.

Rejoinder to Statistical Modeling of Spatial Extremes by A. C. Davison, S. A. Padoan and M. Ribatet [arXiv:1208.3378].
Measuring veracity or reliability of noisy data is of utmost importance, especially in the scenarios where the information are gathered through automated systems. In a recent paper, Chakraborty et. al. (2019) have introduced a veracity scoring techni
que for geostatistical data. The authors have used a high-quality `reference data to measure the veracity of the varying-quality observations and incorporated the veracity scores in their analysis of mobile-sensor generated noisy weather data to generate efficient predictions of the ambient temperature process. In this paper, we consider the scenario when no reference data is available and hence, the veracity scores (referred as VS) are defined based on `local summaries of the observations. We develop a VS-based estimation method for parameters of a spatial regression model. Under a non-stationary noise structure and fairly general assumptions on the underlying spatial process, we show that the VS-based estimators of the regression parameters are consistent. Moreover, we establish the advantage of the VS-based estimators as compared to the ordinary least squares (OLS) estimator by analyzing their asymptotic mean squared errors. We illustrate the merits of the VS-based technique through simulations and apply the methodology to a real data set on mass percentages of ash in coal seams in Pennsylvania.
This paper extends Bayesian mortality projection models for multiple populations considering the stochastic structure and the effect of spatial autocorrelation among the observations. We explain high levels of overdispersion according to adjacent loc
ations based on the conditional autoregressive model. In an empirical study, we compare different hierarchical projection models for the analysis of geographical diversity in mortality between the Japanese counties in multiple years, according to age. By a Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) computation, results have demonstrated the flexibility and predictive performance of our proposed model.
For a skew normal random sequence, convergence rates of the distribution of its partial maximum to the Gumbel extreme value distribution are derived. The asymptotic expansion of the distribution of the normalized maximum is given under an optimal cho
ice of norming constants. We find that the optimal convergence rate of the normalized maximum to the Gumbel extreme value distribution is proportional to $1/log n$.
As with the advancement of geographical information systems, non-Gaussian spatial data sets are getting larger and more diverse. This study develops a general framework for fast and flexible non-Gaussian regression, especially for spatial/spatiotempo
ral modeling. The developed model, termed the compositionally-warped additive mixed model (CAMM), combines an additive mixed model (AMM) and the compositionally-warped Gaussian process to model a wide variety of non-Gaussian continuous data including spatial and other effects. A specific advantage of the proposed CAMM is that it requires no explicit assumption of data distribution unlike existing AMMs. Monte Carlo experiments show the estimation accuracy and computational efficiency of CAMM for modeling non-Gaussian data including fat-tailed and/or skewed distributions. Finally, the model is applied to crime data to examine the empirical performance of the regression analysis and prediction. The result shows that CAMM provides intuitively reasonable coefficient estimates and outperforms AMM in terms of prediction accuracy. CAMM is verified to be a fast and flexible model that potentially covers a wide variety of non-Gaussian data modeling. The proposed approach is implemented in an R package spmoran.
