Dolma and stuffed vine leaves are layered on top of the onion dolmas. The entire pot of dolmas are cooked in sumac flavored water. There are also seafood variants of dolma. Stuffed mussels, called "midye dolma" are very popular in Turkey. Midye dolma may be filled with rice, onion, black pepper and pimento spice. The filling for "kalamar dolma" (stuffed calamari) is made from Halloumi cheese, onion, fresh bread crumbs, garlic and parsley. The whole tentacle is stuffed with the mixture and fried in a butter, olive oil and tomato sauce. For another variation a whole small squid may be stuffed
Vine copula Bayesian networks. In finance, vine copulas have been shown to effectively model tail risk in portfolio optimization applications. The first regular vine, avant la lettre, was introduced by Harry Joe. The motive was to extend parametric bivariate extreme value copula families to higher dimensions. To this end he introduced what would later be called the "D-vine". Joe was interested in a class of n-variate distributions with given one dimensional margins, and "n"("n" − 1) dependence parameters, whereby "n" − 1 parameters correspond to bivariate margins, and the others correspond to conditional bivariate margins. In the case of multivariate normal distributions,
