The Dependent Wild Bootstrap
نویسنده
چکیده
We propose a new resampling procedure, the dependent wild bootstrap, for stationary time series. As a natural extension of the traditional wild bootstrap to time series setting, the dependent wild bootstrap offers a viable alternative to the existing block-based bootstrap methods, whose properties have been extensively studied over the last two decades. Unlike all of the block-based bootstrap methods, the dependent wild bootstrap can be easily extended to irregularly spaced time series with no implementational difficulty. Furthermore, it preserves the favorable bias and mean squared error property of the tapered block bootstrap, which is the state-of-the-art block-based method in terms of asymptotic accuracy of variance estimation and distribution approximation. The consistency of the dependent wild bootstrap in distribution approximation is established under the framework of the smooth function model. In addition, we obtain the bias and variance expansions of the dependent wild bootstrap variance estimator for irregularly spaced time series on a lattice. For irregularly spaced nonlattice time series, we prove the consistency of the dependent wild bootstrap for variance estimation and distribution approximation in the mean case. Simulation studies and an empirical data analysis illustrate the finite-sample performance of the dependent wild bootstrap. Some technical details and tables are included in the online supplemental material.

Dependent wild bootstrap for degenerate U- and V-statistics
Degenerate U and V -statistics play an important role in the field of hypothesis testing since numerous test statistics can be formulated in terms of these quantities. Therefore, consistent bootstrap methods for U and V -statistics can be applied in order to approximate critical values of those tests. First, we prove a new asymptotic result for degenerate U and V -statistics of weakly dependent...
متن کاملDependent wild bootstrap for the empirical process
In this paper, we propose a model-free bootstrap method for the empirical process under absolute regularity. More precisely, consistency of an adapted version of the so-called dependent wild bootstrap, that was introduced by Shao (2010) and is very easy to implement, is proved under minimal conditions on the tuning parameter of the procedure. We apply our results to construct confidence interva...
متن کاملBootstrapping heteroskedastic regression models: wild bootstrap vs. pairs bootstrap
In regression models, appropriate bootstrap methods for inference robust to heteroskedasticity of unknown form are the wild bootstrap and the pairs bootstrap. The finite sample performance of a heteroskedastic-robust test is investigated with Monte Carlo experiments. The simulation results suggest that one specific version of the wild bootstrap outperforms the other versions of the wild bootstr...
متن کاملThe Wild Bootstrap, Tamed at Last
In this paper we are interested in inference based on heteroskedasticity consistent covariance matrix estimators, for which the appropriate bootstrap is a version of the wild bootstrap. Simulation results, obtained by a new very eÆcient method, show that all wild bootstrap tests exhibit substantial size distortion if the error terms are skewed and strongly heteroskedastic. The distortion is how...

Objective(s): To understand the role of mitochondrial respiration in cisplatin sensitivity, we have employed wild-type and mitochondrial DNA depleted Rho0 yeast cells. Materials and Methods: Wild type and Rho0 yeast cultured in fermentable and non-fermentable sugar containing media, were studied for their sensitivity against cisplatin by monitoring growth curves, oxygen consumption, pH changes ...
