MATVines swMATH ID: 38544 Software Authors: Maximilian Coblenz Description: MATVines: A vine copula package for MATLAB. Vine copulas provide a way to model a d-dimensional copula with bivariate building blocks and have been applied to a wide range of research topics. The MATVines package is presented, which implements vine copula functionalities for MATLAB. In particular, simulation and estimation of regular vine copulas are accommodated. Furthermore, goodness-of-fit testing as well as model comparison tests are provided. The package is exclusively written in MATLAB and uses parallelization for efficient computing where appropriate. As a side effect, it extends the basic copula functionality of MATLAB. The MATVines package is illustrated with several examples.
