In VineCopula: Statistical Inference of Vine Copulas

Check for family/parameter consistency in bivariate copula models

Description

The function checks if a certain combination of copula family and parameters can be used within other functions of this package.

Usage

BiCopCheck(family, par, par2 = 0, ...)

Arguments

family	An integer defining the bivariate copula family: 0 = independence copula 1 = Gaussian copula 2 = Student t copula (t-copula) 3 = Clayton copula 4 = Gumbel copula 5 = Frank copula 6 = Joe copula 7 = BB1 copula 8 = BB6 copula 9 = BB7 copula 10 = BB8 copula 13 = rotated Clayton copula (180 degrees; ⁠survival Clayton'') \cr `14` = rotated Gumbel copula (180 degrees; ⁠survival Gumbel”) 16 = rotated Joe copula (180 degrees; ⁠survival Joe'') \cr `17` = rotated BB1 copula (180 degrees; ⁠survival BB1”) 18 = rotated BB6 copula (180 degrees; ⁠survival BB6'')\cr `19` = rotated BB7 copula (180 degrees; ⁠survival BB7”) 20 = rotated BB8 copula (180 degrees; “survival BB8”) 23 = rotated Clayton copula (90 degrees) '24' = rotated Gumbel copula (90 degrees) '26' = rotated Joe copula (90 degrees) '27' = rotated BB1 copula (90 degrees) '28' = rotated BB6 copula (90 degrees) '29' = rotated BB7 copula (90 degrees) '30' = rotated BB8 copula (90 degrees) '33' = rotated Clayton copula (270 degrees) '34' = rotated Gumbel copula (270 degrees) '36' = rotated Joe copula (270 degrees) '37' = rotated BB1 copula (270 degrees) '38' = rotated BB6 copula (270 degrees) '39' = rotated BB7 copula (270 degrees) '40' = rotated BB8 copula (270 degrees) '104' = Tawn type 1 copula '114' = rotated Tawn type 1 copula (180 degrees) '124' = rotated Tawn type 1 copula (90 degrees) '134' = rotated Tawn type 1 copula (270 degrees) '204' = Tawn type 2 copula '214' = rotated Tawn type 2 copula (180 degrees) '224' = rotated Tawn type 2 copula (90 degrees) '234' = rotated Tawn type 2 copula (270 degrees)
par	Copula parameter.
par2	Second parameter for bivariate copulas with two parameters (t, BB1, BB6, BB7, BB8, Tawn type 1 and type 2; default is par2 = 0).
...	used internally.

Value

A logical indicating whether the family can be used with the parameter specification.

Examples

## check parameter of Clayton copula
BiCopCheck(3, 1)  # works

## Not run: BiCopCheck(3, -1)  # does not work (only positive parameter is allowed)
