Copula Bayesian Networks
We present the Copula Bayesian Network model for representing multivariate continuous distributions. Our approach builds on a novel copula-based parameterization of a conditional density that, joined with a graph that encodes independencies, offers great flexibility in modeling high-dimensional densities, while maintaining control over the form of the univariate marginals. We demonstrate the advantage of our framework for generalization over standard Bayesian networks as well as tree structured copula models for varied real-life domains that are of substantially higher dimension than those typically considered in the copula literature.

Bayesian model selection of vine copulas: a loss-based perspective
The growing popularity of vine copulas in multivariate statistical analysis is largely driven by their ability to capture complex dependence structures. However, this flexibility comes at a cost, as the number of possibl…
Bayesian InferenceSpeedy Model Selection (SMS) for Copula Models
We tackle the challenge of efficiently learning the structure of expressive multivariate real-valued densities of copula graphical models. We start by theoretically substantiating the conjecture that for many copula fami…

We utilize copulas to constitute a unified framework for constructing and optimizing variational proposals in hierarchical Bayesian models. For models with continuous and non-Gaussian hidden variables, we propose a semip…
Gaussian Process Conditional Copulas with Applications to Financial Time Series
The estimation of dependencies between multiple variables is a central problem in the analysis of financial time series. A common approach is to express these dependencies in terms of a copula function. Typically the cop…
