Expand description

Extreme value copulas module.

Extreme value copulas are particularly useful for modeling dependence in extreme events. They arise as the limiting distribution of componentwise maxima.

This module implements:

  • Galambos copula
  • Husler-Reiss copula
  • Asymmetric logistic (Tawn) copula

Note: The Gumbel copula is also an extreme value copula but is implemented in the archimedean module.
