Hybrid Copula Estimators

Methodology 2014-12-01 v2

Abstract

An extension of the empirical copula is considered by combining an estimator of a multivariate cumulative distribution function with estimators of the marginal cumulative distribution functions for marginal estimators that are not necessarily equal to the margins of the joint estimator. Such a hybrid estimator may be reasonable when there is additional information available for some margins in the form of additional data or stronger modelling assumptions. A functional central limit theorem is established and some examples are developed.
