Abstract

Given a sample from a continuous multivariate distribution F, the uniform random variates generated independently and rearranged in the order specified by the componentwise ranks of the original sample look like a sample from the copula of F. This idea can be regarded as a variant on Baker’s [J. Multivariate Anal. 99 (2008) 2312–2327] copula construction and leads to the definition of the empirical beta copula. The latter turns out to be a particular case of the empirical Bernstein copula, the degrees of all Bernstein polynomials being equal to the sample size.
