چکیده
Methods employed in the construction of prediction bands for continuous curves require a different approach to those used for a data point. In many cases, the underlying function is unknown and thus a distribution-free approach which preserves sufficient coverage for the entire signal is necessary in the signal analysis. This paper discusses three methods for the formation of (1-α)100% bootstrap prediction bands and their performances are compared through the coverage probabilities obtained for each technique. Bootstrap samples are first obtained for the signal and then three different criteria are provided for the removal of α100% of the curves resulting in the (1-α)100% prediction band. The first method uses the area between the upper and lower curves as a gauge to extract the widest bands in the dataset of signals. Also investigated are extractions using the Hausdorff distance between the bounds as well as an adaption to the bootstrap intervals discussed in Lenhoff et al (1999).[15] The bootstrap prediction bands each have good coverage probabilities for the continuous signals in the dataset. For a 95% prediction band, the coverage obtained were 90.59%, 93.72% and 95% for the L Distance, Hausdorff Distance and the adjusted Bootstrap methods respectively. The methods discussed in this paper have been applied to constructing prediction bands for spring discharge in a successful manner giving good coverage in each case. Spring Discharge measured over time can be considered as a continuous signal and the ability

متن کاملOptimal Non-Parametric Prediction Intervals for Order Statistics with Random Sample Size
In many experiments, such as biology and quality control problems, sample size cannot always be considered as a constant value. Therefore, the problem of predicting future data when the sample size is an integer-valued random variable can be an important issue. This paper describes the prediction problem of future order statistics based on upper and lower records. Two different cases for the ...
متن کاملA Bootstrap Interval Robust Data Envelopment Analysis for Estimate Efficiency and Ranking Hospitals
Data envelopment analysis (DEA) is one of non-parametric methods for evaluating efficiency of each unit. Limited resources in healthcare economy is the main reason in measuring efficiency of hospitals. In this study, a bootstrap interval data envelopment analysis (BIRDEA) is proposed for measuring the efficiency of hospitals affiliated with the Hamedan University of Medical Sciences. The propos...
