Inference for copula modeling of discrete data: a cautionary tale and some facts
In this note, we elucidate some of the mathematical, statistical and epistemological issues involved in using copulas to model discrete data. We contrast the possible use of (nonparametric) copula methods versus the problematic use of parametric copula ...

Dependence measure for length-biased survival data using copulas
The linear correlation coefficient of Bravais-Pearson is considered a powerful indicator when the dependency relationship is linear and the error variate is normally distributed.

Volatility filtering in estimation of kurtosis (and variance)
The kurtosis of the distribution of financial returns characterized by high volatility persistence and thick tails is notoriously difficult to estimate precisely.

Statistical inference and data analysis of the record-based transmuted Burr X model
Probability distribution has proven its usefulness in almost every discipline of human endeavors. A novel extension of Bur X distribution is developed in this study employing the record-based transmuted mapping technique, which can be used to fit skewed ...

New copulas based on general partitions-of-unity (part III) — the continuous case
In this paper we discuss a natural extension of infinite discrete partition-of-unity copulas which were recently introduced in the literature to continuous partition of copulas with possible applications in risk management and other fields.

The accurate estimation of correlation matrices is a foundational challenge in high‐dimensional statistics. The sample correlation matrix, while unbiased, suffers from high variance when the number of variables p is large relative to the sample size n, leading to unstable estimates and poor performance in downstream applications.
