Negative dependence structures through stochastic ordering.

Abdul-Hadi N. Ahmed (1990)

Trabajos de Estadística

Several new multivariate negative dependence concepts such as negative upper orthant dependent in sequence, negatively associated in sequence, right tail negatively decreasing in sequence and upper (lower) negatively decreasing in sequence through stochastic ordering are introduced. These concepts conform with the basic idea that if a set of random variables is split into two sets, then one is increasing whenever the other is decreasing. Our concepts are easily verifiable and enjoy many closure...

New copulas based on general partitions-of-unity and their applications to risk management

Dietmar Pfeifer, Hervé Awoumlac Tsatedem, Andreas Mändle, Côme Girschig (2016)

Dependence Modeling

We construct new multivariate copulas on the basis of a generalized infinite partition-of-unity approach. This approach allows, in contrast to finite partition-of-unity copulas, for tail-dependence as well as for asymmetry. A possibility of fitting such copulas to real data from quantitative risk management is also pointed out.

New estimates and tests of independence in semiparametric copula models

Salim Bouzebda, Amor Keziou (2010)

Kybernetika

We introduce new estimates and tests of independence in copula models with unknown margins using φ -divergences and the duality technique. The asymptotic laws of the estimates and the test statistics are established both when the parameter is an interior or a boundary value of the parameter space. Simulation results show that the choice of χ 2 -divergence has good properties in terms of efficiency-robustness.

Non-exchangeable random variables, Archimax copulas and their fitting to real data

Tomáš Bacigál, Vladimír Jágr, Radko Mesiar (2011)

Kybernetika

The aim of this paper is to open a new way of modelling non-exchangeable random variables with a class of Archimax copulas. We investigate a connection between powers of generators and dependence functions, and propose some construction methods for dependence functions. Application to different hydrological data is given.
