Abstract: In the theoretical part, we propose a class of weighted least squares estimators (WLS) for the tail index for different models. Through a simulation study, these estimators are compared in the Hill, Pikandes, DEdH, and Holan estimators using the mean squared error as a criterion. In application part, we explore various different models to study the spread of COVID-19 in Iraq and Egypt.
