Jackknife Approximations to Bootstrap Estimates
Let T be an estimate of the form Tn = T(F ) where F is the nn n' n sample cdf of n iid observations and T is a locally quadratic functional defined on cdf's. Then, the normalized jackknife estimates for bias, skewness, and variance of Tn approximate closely their bootstrap counterparts. Each of these estimates is consistent. Moreover, the jackknife and bootstrap estimates of variance are asympt...
متن کاملAn Edgeworth Expansion for Finite Population U-statistics
Suppose that U is a U-statistic of degree two based on N random observations drawn without replacement from a nite population. For the distribution of a standardized version of U we construct an Edgeworth expansion with remainder O(N ?1) provided that the linear part of the statistic satisses a Cram er type condition.
متن کاملEdgeworth Approximations for Semiparametric Instrumental Variable Estimators and Test Statistics
We establish the validity of higher order asymptotic expansions to the distribution of a version of the nonlinear semiparametric instrumental variable considered in Newey (1990) as well as to the distribution of a Wald statistic derived from it. We employ local polynomial smoothing with variable bandwidth, which includes local linear, kernel, and [a version of] nearest neighbour estimates as sp...
متن کاملJackknife Multiplier Bootstrap: Finite Sample Approximations to the U-process Supremum with Applications
This paper is concerned with finite sample approximations to the supremum of a nondegenerate U -process of a general order indexed by a function class. We are primarily interested in situations where the function class as well as the underlying distribution change with the sample size, and the U -process itself is not weakly convergent as a process. Such situations arise in a variety of modern ...
متن کاملEstimating Uncertainty in Population Growth Rates: Jackknife vs. Bootstrap Techniques
Although per capita rates of increase (r) have been calculated by population biologists for decades, the inability to estimate uncertainty (variance) associated with r values has until recently precluded statistical comparisons of population growth rates. In this study, we used two computerintensive techniques, Jackknifing and Bootstrapping, to estimate bias, standard errors, and sampling distr...
