In this paper, we look at two different approaches methodologies for copula estimation. The first is based on a parametric approach using MLE and IFM methods, while the second is entirely based on Kendall's tau and spearman's rho in a semi-parametric context, where the margins are estimated non-parametrically. Interestingly, based on R software simulation techniques, the contribution of their algorithms, approach, and illustration was our main focus for this paper. As an application, a class of Archimedean copulas was notably chosen. This particular class of copulas was also presented for censored data to show the estimator's performance even better.
