Bootstrapping the Small Sample Critical Values of the Rescaled Range Statistic *
نویسنده
چکیده
Finite sample critical values of the rescaled range or R/S statistic may be obtained by bootstrapping. The empirical size and power performance of these critical values is good. Using the post blackened, moving block bootstrap helps to replicate the time dependencies in the original data. The Monte Carlo results show that the asymptotic critical values in Lo (1991) should not be used.

Bootstrapping Techniques in Statistical Analysis and Approaches in R MATH
The true probability distribution of a test statistic is rarely known. Generally, its asymptotic law is used as approximation of the true law. If the sample size is not large enough, the asymptotic behavior of that statistic could lead to a poor approximation of the true one. Using bootstrap methods, under some regularity conditions, it is possible to obtain a more accurate approximation of the...
متن کاملPRELIMINARY AND INCOMPLETE DRAFT Bootstrapping the Box - Pierce Q test : A Robust Test of Uncorrelatedness
This paper considers a test of the null hypothesis that the first K autocorrelations of a covariance stationary time series are zero in the presence of statistical dependence. The test is based on the BoxPierce Q statistic with bootstrap-based critical values. The bootstrap is implemented using a double blocks of blocks procedure with prewhitening. The finite sample performance of the bootstrap...
متن کاملPerformance of Bootstrapping Approaches to Model Test Statistics and Parameter Standard Error Estimation in Structural Equation Modeling
Though the common default maximum likelihood estimator used in structural equation modeling is predicated on the assumption of multivariate normality, applied researchers often find themselves with data clearly violating this assumption and without sufficient sample size to utilize distribution-free estimation methods. Fortunately, promising alternatives are being integrated into popular softwa...
متن کاملOn the reduction of the ordinary kriging smoothing effect
A simple but novel and applicable approach is proposed to solve the problem of smoothing effect of ordinary kriging estimate which is widely used in mining and earth sciences. It is based on transformation equation in which Z scores are derived from ordinary kriging estimates and then rescaled by the standard deviation of sample data and the sample mean is added to the result. It bears the grea...
متن کاملBayesian Inference for Spatial Beta Generalized Linear Mixed Models
In some applications, the response variable assumes values in the unit interval. The standard linear regression model is not appropriate for modelling this type of data because the normality assumption is not met. Alternatively, the beta regression model has been introduced to analyze such observations. A beta distribution represents a flexible density family on (0, 1) interval that covers symm...
