It is known that for every $s\in]1,2[$ there is a copula whose support is a self-similar fractal set with Hausdorff -- and box-counting -- dimension $s$. In this paper we provide similar results for (proper) quasi-copulas, in both the…

This paper addresses the problem of quantification and propagation of uncertainties associated with dependence modeling when data for characterizing probability models are limited. Practically, the system inputs are often assumed to be…

In this paper we develop a very general class of bivariate discrete distributions. The basic idea is very simple. The marginals are obtained by taking the random geometric sum of a baseline distribution function. The proposed class of…

Copulas are functions that describe dependence structures of random vectors, without describing their univariate marginals. In statistics, the separation is sometimes useful, the quality and/or quantity of available information on these two…

New in the probability theory and eventology theory, the concept of Kopula (eventological copula) is introduced. The theorem on the characterization of the sets of events by Kopula is proved, which serves as the eventological pre-image of…

In many applications including financial risk measurement, copulas have shown to be a powerful building block to reflect multivariate dependence between several random variables including the mapping of tail dependencies. A famous key…

In this work we propose a semiparametric bivariate copula whose density is defined by a piecewise constant function on disjoint squares. We obtain the maximum likelihood estimators of model parameters and prove that they reduce to the…

We propose a semiparametric family of copulas based on a set of orthonormal functions and a matrix. This new copula permits to reach values of Spearman's Rho arbitrarily close to one without introducing a singular component. Moreover, it…

We develop a general theory for estimating the probability that a galaxy cluster of a given shape exists. The theory is based on the observed result that the distribution of galaxies is very close to quasi-equilibrium, in both its linear…

Quantitative studies in many fields involve the analysis of multivariate data of diverse types, including measurements that we may consider binary, ordinal and continuous. One approach to the analysis of such mixed data is to use a copula…

In this paper, we introduce patchwork constructions for multivariate quasi-copulas. These results appear to be new since the kind of approach has been limited to either copulas or only bivariate quasi-copulas so far. It seems that the…

Statistical inference in high-dimensional settings is challenging when standard unregularized methods are employed. In this work, we focus on the case of multiple correlated proportions for which we develop a Bayesian inference framework.…

Probability boxes, also known as $p$-boxes, correspond to sets of probability distributions bounded by a pair of distribution functions. They fall into the class of models known as imprecise probabilities. One of the central questions…

We extend Strichartz's uncertainty principle [18] from the setting of the Sobolov space W 1,2 (R) to more general Besov spaces B 1/p p,1 (R). The main result gives an estimate from below of the trace of a function from the Besov space on a…
