dcvar - Dynamic Copula VAR Models for Time-Varying Dependence

Fits Bayesian copula vector autoregressive models for bivariate time series with dynamic, regime-switching, and constant dependence structures. The package includes simulation, data preparation, estimation with 'Stan' through 'rstan' or 'cmdstanr', posterior summaries, diagnostics, trajectory extraction, fitted and predictive summaries, and approximate leave-one-out cross-validation model comparison for supported fits.
