  • We consider the iterated bootstrap method in regression model with heterogeneous error variances. The iterated wild bootstrap confidence intervla of the mean response is considered. It is shown that the iterated wild bootstrap confidence interval has coverage error of order $n^{-1}$ wheresa percentile method interval has an error of order $n^{-1/2}$. The simulation results reveal that the iterated bootstrap method calibrates the coverage error of percentile method interval successfully even for the small sample size.

  • In this study, a method of random resampling of residuals from stochastic models such as the Monte-Carlo model, the lag-one autoregressive model(AR(1)) and the periodic lag-one autoregressive model(PAR(1)), has been adopted to generate a large number of long traces of annual and monthly steamflows. Main advantage of this resampling scheme called the Bootstrap method is that it does not rely on the assumption of population distribution. The Bootstrap is a method for estimating the statistical distribution by resampling the data. When the data are a random sample from a distribution, the Bootstrap method can be implemented (among other ways) by sampling the data randomly with replacement. This procedure has been applied to the Yongdam site to check the performance of Bootstrap method for the streamflow generation. and then the statistics between the historical and generated streamflows have been computed and compared. It has been shown that both the conventional and Bootstrap methods for the generation reproduce fairly well the mean, standard deviation, and serial correlation, but the Bootstrap technique reproduces the skewness better than the conventional ones. Thus, it has been noted that the Bootstrap method might be more appropriate for the preservation of skewness.

  • A bootstrap method is used to correct the apparent downward bias of a naive plug-in bootstrap model selection criterion, which is shown to enjoy a high degree of accuracy. Comparison of bootstrap method with the asymptotic method is made through an illustrative example.

  • We compared the confidence intervals of estimators using various bootstrap methods for a Random Coefficient Autoregressive(RCA) model. We consider a Quasi score estimator and M-Quasi score estimator using Huber, Tukey, Andrew and Hempel functions as bounded functions, that do not have required assumption of distribution. A standard bootstrap method, percentile bootstrap method, studentized bootstrap method and hybrid bootstrap method were proposed for the estimations, respectively. In a simulation study, we compared the asymptotic confidence intervals of the Quasi score and M-Quasi score estimator with the bootstrap confidence intervals using the four bootstrap methods when the underlying distribution of the error term of the RCA model follows the normal distribution, the contaminated normal distribution and the double exponential distribution, respectively.

  • We first consider the random censorship model of survival analysis. Efron (1981) introduced two equivalent bootstrap methods for censored data. We propose a new bootstrap scheme, called Method 3, that acts conditionally on the censoring pattern when making inference about aspects of the unknown life-time distribution F. This article contains (a) a motivation for this refined bootstrap scheme ; (b) a proof that the bootstrapped Kaplan-Meier estimatro fo F formed by Method 3 has the same limiting distribution as the one by Efron's approach ; (c) description of and report on simulation studies assessing the small-sample performance of the Method 3 ; (d) an illustration on some Danish data. We also consider the model in which the survival times are censered by death times due to other caused and also by known fixed constants, and propose an appropriate bootstrap method for that model. This bootstrap method is a readily modified version of the Method 3.

  • With the aid of fast computing power, resampling techniques are being introduced for simulation output analysis (SOA). Autocorrelation among the output from discrete-event simulation prohibit the direct application of resampling schemes (Threshold bootstrap, Binary bootstrap, Stationary bootstrap, etc) extend its usage to time-series data such as simulation output. We present a new method for inference from a regenerative process, regenerative bootstrap, that equals or exceeds the performance of classical regenerative method and approximation regeneration techniques. Regenerative bootstrap saves computation time and overcomes the problem of scarce regeneration cycles. Computational results are provided using M/M/1 model.

  • This study uses MATLAB as a programming tool and applies the bootstrap method to process capability analysis. The advantage of using MATLAB in bootstrap method is to make the bootstrap method much easier to implement and apply particularly in process capability analysis. An example is provided to further illustrate the easy use of MATLAB in bootstrap method.

  • This research considers to propose the control charts using median for the location parameter. In order to decide the control limits, we apply several bootstrap methods through the approach obtaining the confidence interval except the standard bootstrap method. Then we illustrate our procedure using an example and compare the performance among the various bootstrap methods by obtaining the length between control limits through the simulation study. The standard bootstrap may be apt to yield shortest length while the bootstrap-t method, the longest one. Finally we comment briefly about some specific features as concluding remarks.

  • Bootstrap methods is the computer-based resampling method that estimates the standard errors and confidence intervals of summary statistics using the plug-in principle for assessing the accuracy or uncertainty of statistical estimates, and the BCa method among the Bootstrap methods is known much superior to other Bootstrap methods in respect of the standards of statistical validation. Therefore this study suggests the method of the representation and treatment of uncertainty in flood risk assessment and water resources planning from the construction and application of rainfall frequency analysis model considersing the uncertainty based on the nonparametric BCa method among the Bootstrap methods for the assessement of the estimation of probability rainfall and the effect of uncertainty considering the uncertainty of the parameter estimation of probability in the rainfall frequency analysis that is the most fundamental in flood risk assessement and water resources planning.

  • In this paper we present the prediction interval estimation method using bootstrap method for least squares support vector machine(LS-SVM) regression, which allows us to perform even nonlinear regression by constructing a linear regression function in a high dimensional feature space. The bootstrap method is applied to generate the bootstrap sample for estimation of the covariance of the regression parameters consisting of the optimal bias and Lagrange multipliers. Experimental results are then presented which indicate the performance of this algorithm.
