Archimedean Copulas in Investigating efficiency of placed powerhouse on dams
Authors
Abstract:
In this paper, copulas and Archimediean copulas (especially with hyperbolic generator) are investigated and it is shown how to use this type of functions in the stochastic frontier analysis. Then we study the efficiency of hydropower plants located on prominent dams in Iran, and based on their performance in 1399 we use data envelopment analysis and stochastic frontier analysis and copulas functions to rank them. In the present study, among the 58 mentioned dams, the dams with an average practical production capacity of at least 10 MW are evaluated. The number of these dams is 29. The calculations show that Gotvand Dam is in the first place and the Mulla Sadra dam has the last rank.

On 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.

Convergence of a sequence of bivariate Archimedean copulas to another Archimedean copula or to the comonotone copula is shown to be equivalent with convergence of the corresponding sequence of Kendall distribution functions. No extra differentiability conditions on the generators are needed. r 2007 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
full textSampling from Archimedean Copulas
We develop sampling algorithms for multivariate Archimedean copulas. For exchangeable copulas, where there is only one generating function, we first analyse the distribution of the copula itself, deriving a number of integral representations and a generating function representation. One of the integral representations is related, by a form of convolution, to the distribution whose Laplace trans...
full textSome 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.

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...
full textSampling 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...
