Multivariate Distribution = Marginals + Copulas
The Copula Marginal Algorithm (CMA) is a simple two step recipe to manipulate multivariate distributions under Fully Flexible Probabilities.
CMA can quickly decompose any multivariate distribution between unique (marginals) and their shared components (copulas). This approach can add a high level of flexibility for estimation and simulation purposes.
Install the development version of CMA
from github with:
# install.packages("devtools")
