摘要：Acopula can fully characterize the dependence of multiple variables. The purpose of this paper is to provide
a Bayesian nonparametric approach to the estimation of a copula, and we do this by mixing over a class of
parametric copulas. In particular, we show that any bivariate copula density can be arbitrarily accurately
approximated by an infinite mixture of Gaussian copula density functions. The model can be estimated by
Markov Chain Monte Carlo methods and the model is demonstrated on both simulated and real data sets.
