Non-Parametric Inference for Bivariate Extreme-Value Copulas
Extreme-value copulas arise as the possible limits of copulas of componentwise maxima of independent, identically distributed samples.The use of bivariate extreme-value copulas is greatly facilitated by their representation in terms of Pickands ...
