Enum documentation

enum class vinecopulib::BicopFamily

A bivariate copula family identifier.

The list below summarises each family's parameter count, parameter range, available rotations, and tail-dependence behaviour. The exact parameter bounds enforced at fit time are visible via Bicop::get_parameters_lower_bounds() / Bicop::get_parameters_upper_bounds(). The Kendall's-tau column refers to the closed-form mapping implemented by Bicop::parameters_to_tau() / Bicop::tau_to_parameters().

Enumerators
indep

Independence copula. 0 parameters; rotationless; no tail dependence; Kendall's tau is 0.

gaussian

Gaussian copula. 1 parameter (rho in (-1, 1)); rotationless; no tail dependence; Kendall's tau is (2 / pi) * arcsin(rho).

student

Student-t copula. 2 parameters (rho in (-1, 1), df > 2); rotationless; symmetric tail dependence; Kendall's tau is (2 / pi) * arcsin(rho).

clayton

Clayton copula. 1 parameter (theta > 0); rotations 0 / 90 / 180 / 270 degrees; lower-tail dependence; Kendall's tau is theta / (theta + 2).

gumbel

Gumbel copula (also extreme-value). 1 parameter (theta >= 1); rotations 0 / 90 / 180 / 270 degrees; upper-tail dependence; Kendall's tau is 1 - 1 / theta.

frank

Frank copula. 1 parameter (theta in R \ {0}); rotationless; no tail dependence; Kendall's tau given by the Debye-function form.

joe

Joe copula. 1 parameter (theta >= 1); rotations 0 / 90 / 180 / 270 degrees; upper-tail dependence; Kendall's tau via a series expansion.

bb1

BB1 copula (two-parameter Archimedean). 2 parameters (theta > 0, delta >= 1); rotations 0 / 90 / 180 / 270 degrees; both lower- and upper-tail dependence; Kendall's tau in closed form.

bb6

BB6 copula (two-parameter Archimedean). 2 parameters (theta >= 1, delta >= 1); rotations 0 / 90 / 180 / 270 degrees; upper-tail dependence; Kendall's tau in closed form.

bb7

BB7 copula (two-parameter Archimedean). 2 parameters (theta >= 1, delta > 0); rotations 0 / 90 / 180 / 270 degrees; both lower- and upper-tail dependence; Kendall's tau in closed form.

bb8

BB8 copula (two-parameter Archimedean). 2 parameters (theta >= 1, delta in (0, 1]); rotations 0 / 90 / 180 / 270 degrees; upper-tail dependence; Kendall's tau in closed form.

tawn

Tawn copula (extreme-value, asymmetric). 3 parameters; rotations 0 / 90 / 180 / 270 degrees; (asymmetric) upper-tail dependence; Kendall's tau via the Pickands dependence function.

tll

Transformation Local Likelihood (TLL) nonparametric estimator. No finite parametric form: the copula density is fit on a grid in the inverse-normal-transformed copula space. Data-driven rotation and tail behaviour; Kendall's tau is rank-based on the fitted density.
