Fisher-Tippett distributions fall into three types. The type I distributions are the most common and are also called Gumbel distributions.
These are distributions of an extreme order statistic for a distribution of
elements
.
The Fisher-Tippett distribution corresponding to a maximum extreme value distribution (i.e., the distribution of the maximum ), sometimes known as the log-Weibull distribution,
with location parameter alpha and scale parameter beta is implemented in the Wolfram
Language as ExtremeValueDistribution[alpha,
beta].
