Abstract:
|
We discuss how the mixed model and the asymmetric mixed model family of bivariate extreme value copulas can be extended to bivariate extreme value copulas with polynomial Pickands functions of arbitrary degree. An algorithm for fitting extreme value copulas with polynomial Pickands functions to data will be presented and various practical issues that arise when fitting bivariate extreme value copula models will be discussed.
