VecDep - Measuring Copula-Based Dependence Between Random Vectors

Provides functions for estimation (parametric, semi-parametric and non-parametric) of copula-based dependence coefficients between a finite collection of random vectors, including phi-dependence measures and Bures-Wasserstein dependence measures. An algorithm for agglomerative hierarchical variable clustering is also implemented.
