Copula additive distributional regression enables the joint modeling of multiple outcomes, an essential aspect of many real-world research problems. This book provides an accessible overview of this modeling approach, with a particular focus on its implementation in the GJRM R package, developed by the authors. The emphasis is on bivariate responses with empirical illustrations drawn from diverse fields such as health and medicine, epidemiology, economics and social sciences. The book is organized into four parts. Part I introduces the copula additive distributional regression framework and provides a succinct overview of the GJRM and GJRM.data packages in R. Part II focuses on scenarios where the marginal distributions are of the same type, while Part III explores cases with mixed marginal types. Finally, Part IV demonstrates how copula regression can be applied to estimate causal treatment effects in the presence of unobserved confounding. This book is designed for graduate students, researchers, practitioners and analysts who are interested in using copula additive distributional regression for the joint modeling of bivariate outcomes. The methodology is accessible to readers with a basic understanding of core statistics and probability, regression, copula modeling and R.

If you want to upgrade your programming skills, the most important thing you need is a solid understanding of fundamental data structures. The proper choice of data structures distinguishes excellent programmers from merely competent ones. As an experienced programmer, you use data structures―at least arrays―all the time. However, you may not be familiar with hash tables, trees and binary trees, priority queues, directed and undirected graphs, and other data structures at your disposal. A good choice of data structures will simplify your job, not complicate it. Your code will be not only faster but also easier to understand and debug. There is no downside to using the right data structures for the job. Code isn’t always the best way to explain an algorithm or data structure—but sometimes it is. In such cases, the code should be as readable as possible. It’s generally agreed that Python is the most readable language, but every language has glitches. Similarly, Python has dictionaries, “lists,” and sets, which we will try to avoid. Consequently, the code in this book is “Python-like” but, in the interest of making code as readable as possible for everyone, not necessarily “real” Python.
