We introduce a statistical test for comparing the predictive accuracy of competing copula specifications in multivariate density forecasts, based on the Kullback-Leibler Information Criterion (KLIC). The test is valid under general conditions: in particular it allows for parameter estimation...

Reliable wind energy forecasting is crucial for the stable operation of power grids. This paper proposes a regional wind power probabilistic forecasting model comprising an improved kernel density estimation (IKDE), regular vine copulas, and ensemble learning. The IKDE is firstly used to...
