S4 class for the vine settings

Description

Specify which vine copula models are fitted and how often they are refit as well as how big the training data set is. Remember that the estimation process is done in a rolling window fashion and the arguments (train and refit size) will have to match with the arguments of the also to be specified marginal_settings.

Usage

vine_settings(train_size, refit_size, family_set = "all", vine_type = "rvine")
