Binary Outcome Copula Regression Model with Sampling Gradient Fitting

Abstract

Use copula to model dependency of variable extends multivariate gaussian assumption. In this paper we first empirically studied copula regression model with continous response. Both simulation study and real data study are given. Secondly we give a novel copula regression model with binary outcome, and we propose a score gradient estimation algorithms to fit the model. Both simulation study and real data study are given for our model and fitting algorithm.
