Vine Distribution Functions
Density evaluation, distribution function evaluation, and random number generation.
dvine(vine, u) pvine(vine, u) rvine(vine, n)
vine |
A |
u |
Vector of the same dimension of the vine or a matrix with one column for each variable of the vine. |
n |
Number of observations. |
The pvine function is evaluated through the numerical integration of
the density function (using the cubature package). This is a
computationally demanding procedure, even for small dimensions.
dnorm returns a vector with the evaluation of the density.
pnorm returns a vector with the evaluation of the distribution
function. rvine returns a matrix with one column for each variable
of the vine and one row for each observation.
