Abstract

A new parametric family of high-dimensional , non-exchangeable extreme-value copulas is presented. The construction is based on the Levy-frailty construction and stems from a subfamily of the Marshall–Olkin distribution. In contrast to the classical Levy-frailty construction, non-exchangeability is achieved by inhomogeneous trigger-rate parameters. This family is studied with respect to its distributional properties and a sampling algorithm is developed. Moreover, a new estimator for its parameters is given. The estimation strategy consists in minimizing the mean squared error of the underlying Bernstein function and certain strongly consistent estimates thereof.
