mapping: Mapping of Kendall's tau and copula parameter

Description

Bivariate copulas: mapping of Kendall's tau and copula parameter.

Usage

Value

Kendall's tau or copula parameter.

Arguments

Examples

# 1-param copulas
#BVN copula
cpar.bvn = tau2par("bvn", 0.5)
tau.bvn = par2tau("bvn", cpar.bvn)

#Frank copula
cpar.frk = tau2par("frk", 0.5)
tau.frk = par2tau("frk", cpar.frk)

#Gumbel copula
cpar.gum = tau2par("gum", 0.5)
tau.gum = par2tau("gum", cpar.gum)

#Joe copula
cpar.joe = tau2par("joe", 0.5)
tau.joe = par2tau("joe", cpar.joe)

# 2-param copulas
#BB1 copula
tau.bb1 = par2tau("bb1", c(0.5,1.5))

#BB7 copula
tau.bb7 = par2tau("bb7", c(1.5,1))

#BB8 copula
tau.bb8 = par2tau("bb8", c(3,0.8))

#BB10 copula
tau.bb10 = par2tau("bb10", c(3,0.8))
