Assessing sampling sufficiency of network metrics using bootstrap
Sampling the full diversity of interactions in an ecological community is a highly intensive effort. Recent studies have demonstrated that many network metrics are sensitive to both sampling effort and network size. Here, we develop a statistical framework, based on bootstrap resampling, that aims to assess sampling sufficiency for some of the most widely used metrics in network ecology, namely...
متن کاملassessment of the efficiency of s.p.g.c refineries using network dea
data envelopment analysis (dea) is a powerful tool for measuring relative efficiency of organizational units referred to as decision making units (dmus). in most cases dmus have network structures with internal linking activities. traditional dea models, however, consider dmus as black boxes with no regard to their linking activities and therefore do not provide decision makers with the reasons...
Assessing Particle Swarm Optimizers Using Network Science Metrics
Particle Swarm Optimizers (PSOs) have been widely used for optimization problems, but the scientific community still does not have sophisticated mechanisms to analyze the behavior of the swarm during the optimization process. We propose in this paper to use some metrics described in network sciences, specifically the R-value, the number of zero eigenvalues of the Laplacian Matrix, and the Spect...
متن کاملAssessing model mimicry using the parametric bootstrap
We present a general sampling procedure to quantify model mimicry, defined as the ability of a model to account for data generated by a competing model. This sampling procedure, called the parametric bootstrap cross-fitting method (PBCM; cf. Williams (J. R. Statist. Soc. B 32 (1970) 350; Biometrics 26 (1970) 23)), generates distributions of differences in goodness-of-fit expected under each of ...
متن کاملSmoothed Bootstrap and Jackboot Sampling Smoothed Bootstrap and Jackboot Sampling
We propose a bootstrap sampling method jackboot sampling This provides more accu rate inferences than ordinary bootstrap sampling better con dence interval coverage and less biased or unbiased standard errors The method is simple to implement We also prescribe a smoothing parameter for use in smoothed bootstrapping using or dinary kernel smoothing The e ect is similar to that of jackboot sampling
