Orthogonal shape and scale for a generalized Pareto distribution

ID: orthogonal-shape-and-scale-for-a-generalized-pareto-distribution

For the positive-shape generalized Pareto distribution with shape and scale , the expected Fisher information matrix for one observation is
The orthogonalization equation for two statistical parameters gives at fixed new nuisance coordinate. Thus is a global interest-respecting reparametrization. In coordinates , the information is diagonal with entries and .
