lambda_L = lim_{u->0+} C(u,u) / u. The lower tail of (X, Y) is the
upper tail of (-X, -Y), so the estimator is Coles' chi(u) applied to
the reflected sample; no second estimator is written. For a radially
symmetric dependence structure the two coefficients coincide, which is
the anchor used in the tests.
Usage
Tldepl(y, copula, theta = 0.95)
Arguments
- y
Numeric vector, first margin.
- copula
Numeric vector, second margin (equal length).
- theta
Threshold in (0, 1), default 0.95.
Value
List with estimate, u, n, method.
