Simulation<br />

• Generate a gaussian vector v of random variables with correlation<br />

ρ.<br />

• To simulate a vector x of random variables with marg<strong>in</strong>als<br />

F 1 , . . . , F N and a Normal copula with parameters ρ, we use the<br />

follow<strong>in</strong>g transformation<br />

x = ( Ψ −1 [F 1 ] (v 1 ) , . . . , Ψ −1 [F N ] (v N )<br />

Application to market<strong>in</strong>g Segmentation is a useful tool for<br />

market<strong>in</strong>g (and scor<strong>in</strong>g). Let Y be a random variable which<br />

corresponds to the target. The ma<strong>in</strong> idea is to def<strong>in</strong>e classes<br />
