4 atdf<br />
taildep: Estimate chi <strong>and</strong>/or chibar; statistics that inform about tail dependence between two<br />
variables.<br />
atdf: Auto-tail dependence function <strong>and</strong> plot. Helps to inform about possible dependence in the<br />
extremes of a process. Note that a process that is highly correlated may or may not be dependent in<br />
the extremes.<br />
decluster: Decluster threshold exceedance in a data set to yield a new related process that is more<br />
closely independent in the extremes. Includes two methods for declustering both of which <strong>are</strong> based<br />
on runs declustering.<br />
extremalindex: Estimate the extremal index, a measure of dependence in the extremes. Two<br />
methods <strong>are</strong> available, one based on runs declustering <strong>and</strong> the other is the intervals estiamte of<br />

Auto-Tail Dependence Function<br />
Description<br />
Computes (<strong>and</strong> by default plots) estimates of the auto-tail dependence function(s) (atdf) based on<br />
either chi (rho) or chibar (rhobar), or both.
