Computes an intermediate correlation matrix for continuous non-normal variables given the specified correlation matrix

Description

This function computes the intermediate correlation matrix for continuous non-normal-continuous non-normal combinations as formulated in Demirtas et al. (2012).

Usage

Int.Corr.NN(n.NN, corr.vec = NULL, corr.mat = NULL, coef.mat)

Arguments

Value

A correlation matrix of size n.NN*n.NN.
