[ 1 ] - Two-stage estimation using copula function

‎Maximum likelihood estimation of multivariate distributions needs solving a optimization problem with large dimentions (to the number of unknown parameters) but two‎- ‎stage estimation divides this problem to several simple optimizations‎. ‎It saves significant amount of computational time‎. ‎Two methods are investigated for estimation consistency check‎. ‎We revisit Sankaran and Nair's bivari...
