A note on bootstrap confidence intervals for proportions
نویسنده
چکیده
We first show that any 1−α bootstrap percentile confidence interval for a proportion based on a binomial random variable has an infimum coverage probability zero for any sample size. This result is then extended to intervals for the difference, the relative risk and the odds ratio of two proportions as well as other types of bootstrap intervals. © 2013 Elsevier B.V.

Bootstrap confidence intervals of CNpk for type‑II generalized log‑logistic distribution
This paper deals with construction of confidence intervals for process capability index using bootstrap method (proposed by Chen and Pearn in Qual Reliab Eng Int 13(6):355–360, 1997) by applying simulation technique. It is assumed that the quality characteristic follows type-II generalized log-logistic distribution introduced by Rosaiah et al. in Int J Agric Stat Sci 4(2):283–292, (2008). Discu...
متن کاملStatistical Topology Using the Nonparametric Density Estimation and Bootstrap Algorithm
This paper presents approximate confidence intervals for each function of parameters in a Banach space based on a bootstrap algorithm. We apply kernel density approach to estimate the persistence landscape. In addition, we evaluate the quality distribution function estimator of random variables using integrated mean square error (IMSE). The results of simulation studies show a significant impro...
متن کاملSimultaneous confidence intervals based on the percentile bootstrap approach
This note concerns the construction of bootstrap simultaneous confidence intervals (SCI) for m parameters. Given B bootstrap samples, we suggest an algorithm with complexity of O(mB log(B)). We apply our algorithm to construct a confidence region for time dependent probabilities of progression in multiple sclerosis and for coefficients in a logistic regression analysis. Alternative normal based...
متن کاملBootstrap Confidence Intervals Based on Inverting Hypothesis Tests
Most confidence intervals, whether based on asymptotic theory or the bootstrap, are implicitly based on inverting a Wald test. Since Wald test statistics are not invariant under nonlinear reparametrizations of the restrictions they test, confidence intervals based on them are not invariant either. This fact explains the well-known non invariance of bootstrap confidence intervals obtained by Hal...
متن کاملEstimation in Simple Step-Stress Model for the Marshall-Olkin Generalized Exponential Distribution under Type-I Censoring
This paper considers the simple step-stress model from the Marshall-Olkin generalized exponential distribution when there is time constraint on the duration of the experiment. The maximum likelihood equations for estimating the parameters assuming a cumulative exposure model with lifetimes as the distributed Marshall Olkin generalized exponential are derived. The likelihood equations do not lea...
