Universal optimality of the logarithmic coordinate for heavy tails
Universal optimality of the logarithmic coordinate for heavy tails
Let be a distribution family on whose members have power-law tails satisfying for some . Let the logarithmic coordinate be . Universal optimality conjecture. The coordinate is asymptotically optimal as the tail parameter . The conjecture proposes a universal coordinate choice for increasingly heavy-tailed distribution families; the supplied source gives no evidence establishing or refuting it.
