bernstein: Flexible Pair-Copula Estimation in D-vines with Penalized...

Description Usage Arguments Value Note Author(s) References

Description

Calculation of Bernstein Polynomials, following the formula (choose(n, v) * x^v * (1 - x)^(n - v)) * (n + 1) .

Usage

1
bernstein(v,x,n)

Arguments

v

n choose v.

x

Argument between 0 and 1.

n

n choose v.
