A family of threshold nonlinear generalised autoregressive conditionally heteroscedastic models is considered, that allows smooth transitions between regimes, capturing size asymmetry via an exponential smooth transition function. A Bayesian approach is taken and an efficient adaptive sampling...

We simplify the implementation of some elliptical copula regression models through the normal representation. Both copula and marginal probability density functions are expressed as the scale mixtures of normals to facilitate the estimation procedure. With the fact that all elliptical...
