Scholar-generated biography
Christian Genest is a researcher at McGill University specializing in copula models, dependence modeling, extreme value theory, and nonparametric statistics. His work focuses on statistical inference procedures for bivariate Archimedean copulas, goodness-of-fit tests for copulas, and semiparametric estimation of dependence parameters in multivariate families of distributions. He has contributed significantly to the development of copula-based methods for analyzing multivariate hydrological data and count data. His research also includes the study of quasi-copulas, Kendall plots, and the multivariate probability integral transformation, emphasizing the application of copula models in finance and extreme value analysis.
