```{r, include = FALSE}
knitr::opts_chunk$set(
  collapse = TRUE,
  comment = "#>"
)
```

```{r setup}
library(VecDep)
```

First, let us fix some parameters.
```{r}
q = 4
dim = c(2,2)
n = 1000
```

Construct a four dimensional hierarchical Gumbel copula
with parameters (theta_0,theta_1,theta_2) = (2,3,4)
```{r}
hac = gethac(dim,c(2,3,4),type = 1)
```

Draw a sample of size n from the copula
```{r}
sample = suppressWarnings(HAC::rHAC(n,hac))
```

Estimate the mutual information between two random vectors of size two
via pseudo maximum likelihood estimation

```{r}
estphi(sample,dim,list("hac",type = 1,M = 10000),function(t){t * log(t)})

```
