โœฆ Synopsis

Based on an analysis of copulas of elliptically contoured distributions, joint densities of continuous variables with given strictly increasing marginal distributions are constructed. A method utilized for this procedure is to embed the spherical distribution quantile transformation of each variable into an elliptically contoured distribution. The new class of distributions is then called meta-elliptical distributions. The corresponding analytic forms of the density, conditional distribution functions, and dependence properties are derived. This new class of distributions has the same Kendall's rank correlation coefficient as meta-Gaussian distributions. As an extension of elliptically contoured distributions, some new classes of distributions are also obtained.

One of the most useful tools for handling multivariate distributions with given univariate marginals is the copula function. Using it, any multivariate distribution function can be represented in a way that emphasizes the separate roles of the marginals and of the dependence structure. The goal of t

Parametric families of continuous bivariate distributions with given margins that include independence and perfect positive dependence are compared on the basis on some important properties. Since many such families exist, the comparisons are helpful for deciding on suitable models for multivariate
