Non-parametric Clustering of Multivariate Populations with Arbitrary Sizes
任意样本规模多变量总体的非参数聚类
We propose a clustering procedure to group K populations into subgroups with the same dependence structure. The method is adapted to paired population and can be used with panel data. It relies on the differences between orthogonal projection coefficients of the K density copulas estimated from the K populations. Each cluster is then constituted by populations having significantly similar dependence structures. A recent test statistic from Ngounou-Bakam and Pommeret (2022)…
