Overview

About

Maintained by Van Trung Pham3 releasesCRAN page ↗

This package provides tools for modeling copulas with the PBC model, a class of multivariate copulas based on products of bivariate copulas (G. Mazo G, S. Girard and F. Forbes, 2013). The likelihood is computed thanks to a message-passing algorithm on graphs (J. C. Huang and N. Jojic, 2010).

Install

R (source archive)

url <- "https://cran.r-project.org/src/contrib/Archive/PBC/PBC_1.2.tar.gz"
pkgFile <- "PBC_1.2.tar.gz"
download.file(url, pkgFile)
install.packages(pkgFile, type = "source", repos = NULL)

This package is no longer on CRAN, so install.packages() cannot fetch it by name. This downloads the last archived source (1.2) and builds it locally. Install its dependencies first, and note that building from source needs the usual compiler toolchain.
