spVineCopula-class: Class '"spVineCopula"'

In spcopula: Copula Driven Analysis - Multivariate, Spatial, Spatio-Temporal

Description

A S4-class representing a spatial vine copula structure to model spatial processes. This spatial vine might be composed out of purely spatial trees or being mixed as lower spatial trees with an upper non-spatially varying joined copula.

Objects from the Class

Objects can be created by calls of the form new("spVineCopula", ...) or to the constructor spVineCopula.

Slots

spCop:

Object of class spCopula A bivariate spatially varying copula.

topCop:

Object of class vineCopula, copula or NULL. The top copula being constant over space. It is either a R-Vine (vineCopula) or a bivariate copula (copula) joining the spatial components (neighbours) or all trees of the vine are spatial bivariate copulas (NULL).

dimension:

Object of class "integer" giving the dimension of the spVineCopula (neighbourhood).

parameters:

Object of class "numeric" empty

param.names:

Object of class "character" empty

param.lowbnd:

Object of class "numeric" empty

param.upbnd:

Object of class "numeric" empty

fullname:

Object of class "character" A descriptive name of the this copula family.

Extends

Class "copula", directly. Class "Copula", by class "copula", distance 2.
