tailDepFun (version 1.0.1)

stdfEmpInt: Integrated empirical stable tail dependence function

Description

Analytical implementation of the integral of the bivariate stable tail dependence function over the unit square.

Usage

stdfEmpInt(ranks, k)

Arguments

ranks

A n x 2 matrix, where each column is a permutation of the integers 1:n, representing the ranks computed from a sample of size n.

k

An integer between 1 and \(n - 1\); the threshold parameter in the definition of the empirical stable tail dependence function.#' @return A scalar.

Value

A positive scalar.
