Viale del Castro Laurenziano 9, Roma
Abstract:
The conditional copula device allows the use of copula models in the study of
dependence between response variables in regression settings.
We consider situations in which the dependence structure varies
with covariates and we introduce a Bayesian model that allows for
joint estimation of the marginal and joint models.
The dependence between the copula parameter and the
covariates is modeled via polynomial splines. Extensions to multiple
covariates are implemented via additive models. We discuss the
computation algorithm required for inference and demonstrate the
performance of model selection techniques on simulated and real data.
