We can use the ridge regression as a means for stabilizing the coefficient estimators in the fitted model when performing experiments in highly constrained regions causes collinearity problems in mixture experiments. But there is no theory available on which to base statistical inference of ridge estimators. The bootstrap could be used to seek the confidence intervals of ridge estimators.

Inference for discrete event simulations usually relies on either independent replications or, if each simulation run is expensive, the method of batch means applied to a single replications. We present a new method, threshold bootstrap, which equals or exceeds the performance of independent replications or batch means. The method works by resampling runs of data created when a stationary time series crosses a threshold level, such as the sample mean of series. Computational results show that the threshold bootstrap matches or exceeds the performance of these alternative methods in estimating the standard deviation of the sample mean and producing valid confidence intervals.

This research examines the power of bootstrap two-sample test, and compares it with the powers of two-sample t-test and Wilcoxon rank sum test, through simulation. For simulation work, a positively skewed and heavy tailed distribution was selected as a population distribution, the chi-square distributions with three degrees of freedom, χ²₃. For two independent samples, the fist sample was selected from χ²₃. The second sample was selected independently from the same χ²₃ as the first sample, and calculated d+ax for each sampled value x, a randomly selected value from χ²₃. The d in d+ax has from 0 to 5 by 0.5 interval, and the a has from 1.0 to 1.5 by 0.1 interval. The powers of three methods were evaluated for the sample sizes 10,20,30,40,50. The null hypothesis was the two population medians being equal for Bootstrap two-sample test and Wilcoxon rank sum test, and the two population means being equal for the two-sample t-test. The powers were obtained using r program language; wilcox.test() in r base package for Wilcoxon rank sum test, t.test() in r base package for the two-sample t-test, boot.two.bca() in r wBoot pacakge for the bootstrap two-sample test. Simulation results show that the power of Wilcoxon rank sum test is the best for all 330 (n,a,d) combinations and the power of two-sample t-test comes next, and the power of bootstrap two-sample comes last. As the results, it can be recommended to use the classic inference methods if there are widely accepted and used methods, in terms of time, costs, sometimes power.

The bootstrap is a method of computational inference that simulates the creation of new data by resampling from a single data set. We propose a new job for the bootstrap: generating inputs from one historical trace using Threshold Bootstrap. In this regard, the most important quality of bootstrap samples is that they be functionally indistinguishable from independent samples of the same stochastic process. We describe a quantitative measure of difference between two time series, and demonstrate the sensitivity of this measure for discriminating between two data generating processes. Utilizing this distance measure for the task of generating inputs, we show a way of tuning the bootstrap using a single observed trace. This application of the threshold bootstrap will be a powerful tool for Monte Carlo simulation. Monte Carlo simulation analysis relies on built-in input generators. These generators make unrealistic assumptions about independence and marginal distributions. The alternative source of inputs, historical trace data, though realistic by definition, provides only a single input stream for simulation. One benefit of our method would be expanding the number of inputs achieving reality by driving system models with actual historical input series. Another benefit might be the automatic generation of lifelike scenarios for the field of finance.

We consider using ranked set sampling methods to draw inference about the three well-known measures of overlap, namely Matusita's measure $\rho$, Morisita's measure $\lambda$ and Weitzman's measure $\Delta$. Two exponential populations with different means are considered. Due to the difficulties of calculating the precision or the bias of the resulting estimators of overlap measures, because there are no closed-form exact formulas for their variances and their exact sampling distributions, Monte Carlo evaluations are used. Confidence intervals for those measures are also constructed via the bootstrap method and Taylor series approximation.

In this paper we study two vector-valued process capability indices $C_{p}$=($C_{px}$, $C_{py}$ ) and C/aub pm/=( $C_{pmx}$, $C_{pmy}$) considering process capability indices $C_{p}$ and $C_{pm}$ . First, two asymptotic distributions of plug-in estimators $C_{p}$=($C_{px}$, $C_{py}$ ) and $C_{pm}$ =) $C_{pmx}$, $C_{pmy}$) are derived.. With the asymptotic distributions, we propose asymptotic confidence regions for our indices. Next, obtaining the asymptotic distributions of two bootstrap estimators $C_{p}$=($C_{px}$, $C_{py}$ )and $C_{pm}$ =( $C_{pmx}$, $C_{pmy}$) with our bootstrap algorithm, we will provide the consistency of our bootstrap for statistical inference. Also, with the consistency of our bootstrap, we propose bootstrap asymptotic confidence regions for our indices. (no abstract, see full-text)see full-text)e full-text)

Canonical correspondence analysis is an ordination method used to visualize the relationships among sites, species and environmental variables. However, projection results are fluctuations if the samples slightly change and consistent interpretation on ecological similarity among species tends to be difficult. We use the bootstrap methods for canonical correspondence analysis to solve this problem. The bootstrap method results show that the variations of coordinate points are inversely proportional to the number of observations and coverage rates with bootstrap confidence interval approximates to nominal probabilities.

As an estimate of a location parameter for a given data set, $\alpha$-trimmed mean has been studied for a long time by many statisticians because of its nice propoerties including robustness. However, its performance depends on the proportion of trimming say $\alpha$. In this paper, we suggest a data-driven choice of $\alpha$ and study its validity. Also, we suggest a new estimator and consider double-bootstrap to improve its performance. By using simulation study, the proposed method is compared with the exiting one in various cases. Real data sets are also analyzed by using the proposed method.
