Patton_copula_toolbox_2.5_canalul3_copula_时变，copula_Patton_copul

4 June 2006 This toolbox is a collection of Matlab functions that I wrote for my research on copulas for financial time series. The main papers from that research are listed below. Some simple example code is given in "copula_example_code.m", which is a good place to start. It loads in a small data set and estimates a variety of constant and time-varying copula models. If you find any bugs in this code please feel free to let me know: a.patton@lse.ac.uk Updates will be available from my web page: http://fmg.lse.ac.uk/~patton -Andrew Patton.
