Nested Archimedean Copulas Meet R— The nacopula Package
نویسندگان
چکیده
The package copula (formerly nacopula) provides procedures for constructing nested Archimedean copulas in any dimensions and with any kind of nesting structure, generating vectors of random variates from the constructed objects, computing function values and probabilities of falling into hypercubes, as well as evaluation of characteristics such as Kendall’s tau and the tail-dependence coefficients. As by-products, algorithms for various distributions, including exponentially tilted stable and Sibuya distributions, are implemented. Detailed examples are given.

Sampling Archimedean copulas
This paper addresses the problem of efficiently sampling exchangeable and nested Archimedean copulas, with specific focus on large dimensions, where methods involving generator derivatives, such as the conditional distribution method, are not applicable. Additionally, new conditions under which Archimedean copulas can be mixed to construct nested Archimedean copulas are presented. Moreover, for...
متن کاملEfficiently sampling Archimedean copulas
Efficient sampling algorithms for both exchangeable and nested Archimedean copulas are presented. First, efficient sampling algorithms for the nested Archimedean families of Ali-Mikhail-Haq, Frank, and Joe are introduced. Second, a general strategy how to build a nested Archimedean copula from a given Archimedean generator is presented. Sampling this copula involves sampling an exponentiallytil...
متن کاملEnjoy the Joy of Copulas
Copulas have become a popular tool in multivariate modeling successfully applied in many fields.

This article presents the design, features, and some implementation details of the R package copula. The package provides a carefully designed and easily extensible platform for multivaria...
متن کاملSome Results on a Generalized Archimedean Family of Copulas
Durante et al. (2007) introduced a class of bivariate copulas depending on two generators which generalizes some known families such as the Archimedean copulas. In this paper we provide some result on properties of this family when the generators are certain univariate survival functions.
متن کاملOn Generators in Archimedean Copulas
This study after reviewing construction methods of generators in Archimedean copulas (AC), proposes several useful lemmas related with generators of AC. Then a new trigonometric Archimedean family will be shown which is based on cotangent function. The generated new family is able to model the low dependence structures.
