In this paper we present a method for exact generation of multivariate samples with pre-specified marginal distributions and a given correlation matrix, based on a mixture of Fr\'echet-Hoeffding bounds and marginal products. The bivariate…

This paper presents an introduction to the stochastic concepts of \emph{coupling} and \emph{copula}. Coupling means the construction of a joint distribution of two or more random variables that need not be defined on one and the same…

We propose the extension of Fr\'{e}chet-Hoeffding copula bounds for circular data. The copula is a powerful tool for describing the dependency of random variables. In two dimensions, the Fr\'{e}chet-Hoeffding upper (lower) bound indicates…

We propose an approach to construct a new family of generalized Farlie-Gumbel-Morgenstern (GFGM) copulas that naturally scales to high dimensions. A GFGM copula can model moderate positive and negative dependence, cover different types of…

This article gives a formula for associated Stirling numbers of the second kind based on the moment of a sum of independent random variables having a beta distribution. From this formula we deduce, using probabilistic approaches, lower and…

Correlation matrices are the sub-class of positive definite real matrices with all entries on the diagonal equal to unity. Earlier work has exhibited a parametrisation of the corresponding Cholesky factorisation in terms of partial…

The Kumaraswamy distribution has been proposed as an alternative to the beta distribution with more benign algebraic properties. They have the same two parameters, the same support and qualitatively similar shape for any parameter values.…

This paper develops a general inferential framework for discrete copulas on finite supports in any dimension. The copula of a multivariate discrete distribution is defined as Csiszar's I-projection (i.e., the minimum-Kullback-Leibler…

We introduce the notion of a bivariate random discrete copula on an equidistant mesh and explore its stochastic properties. A random discrete copula is a discrete random field, hence, its value at a given point on the mesh is a random…
