Package: bvpa Type: Package Title: Bivariate Pareto Distribution Version: 1.0.0 Date: 2023-08-07 Authors@R: c(person("Biplab", "Paul", role = c("aut", "cre"), email = "paul.biplab497@gmail.com"), person("Arabin Kumar", "Dey", role = c("aut"))) Maintainer: Biplab Paul Description: Implements the EM algorithm with one-step Gradient Descent method to estimate the parameters of the Block-Basu bivariate Pareto distribution with location and scale. We also found parametric bootstrap and asymptotic confidence intervals based on the observed Fisher information of scale and shape parameters, and exact confidence intervals for location parameters.
