Perform Median Regression using a Copula by Numerical Derivative Method for U with respect to V

Description

Perform median regression of a copula (Nelsen, 2006, pp. 217–218) by inversion of numerical derivatives of the copula (derCOPinv2). The documentation for qua.regressCOP2 provides mathematical details.

Usage

med.regressCOP2(v=seq(0.01,0.99, by=0.01), cop=NULL, para=NULL, level=NA, ...)

Arguments

v

Nonexceedance probability v in the Y direction;

cop

A copula function;

para

Vector of parameters or other data structure, if needed, to pass to the copula;

level

The level of the prediction interval to compute. For example, level=0.95 will compute the 95-percent prediction interval as will level=0.05 because internally a reflection check is made; and

...

Additional arguments to pass such qua.regressCOP2 and derCOPinv2 that are called in succession.

Value

An R data.frame of the median regressed probabilities of U and provided V values is returned. Note: if level is used, the column ordering of the returned data.frame changes—please access the columns by the named idiom. The lower- and upper-prediction interval bounds are contained in the columns repectively titled Ulwr and Uupr to mimic nomenclature somewhat of function predict.lm() in R.
