Report I spent five weeks at the Department of Statistical Sciences, University of Toronto. Under the supervision of Prof. Stanislav Volgushev, we initiated a research project extending the idea of blockwise top-two order statistics to a higher-dimensional setting. Our goal was to explore how to jointly estimate the dependence structure of extreme events occurring at multiple locations, making use of more than just blockwise maxima. The stay provided the perfect environment for developing these ideas and exchanging with leading scholars.
