Optimum Block Size in Separate Block Bootstrap to Estimate the Variance of Sample Mean for Lattice Data

نویسنده

  • M. Mohammadzadeh
چکیده مقاله:

The statistical analysis of spatial data is usually done under Gaussian assumption for the underlying random field model. When this assumption is not satisfied, block bootstrap methods can be used to analyze spatial data. One of the crucial problems in this setting is specifying the block sizes. In this paper, we present asymptotic optimal block size for separate block bootstrap to estimate the variance of sample mean for spatial lattice data, using minimization of asymptotic mean square error of the estimator. Further, an empirical method has been proposed to determine the optimal block size. Also the optimality of the empirical estimate of block size has been considered numerically in a simulation study.

Optimal block size for variance estimation by a spatial block bootstrap method

This paper considers the block selection problem for a block bootstrap variance estimator applied to spatial data on a regular grid. We develop precise formulae for the optimal block sizes that minimize the mean squared error of the bootstrap variance estimator. We then describe practical methods for estimating these spatial block sizes and prove the consistency of a block selection method by H...

Asymptotic algorithm for computing the sample variance of interval data

The problem of the sample variance computation for epistemic inter-val-valued data is, in general, NP-hard. Therefore, known efficient algorithms for computing variance require strong restrictions on admissible intervals like the no-subset property or heavy limitations on the number of possible intersections between intervals. A new asymptotic algorithm for computing the upper bound of the samp...

The Block - Block Bootstrap : Improved Asymptotic Refinements

1 The asymptotic refinements attributable to the block bootstrap for time series are not as large as those of the nonparametric iid bootstrap or the parametric bootstrap. One reason is that the independence between the blocks in the block bootstrap sample does not mimic the dependence structure of the original sample. This is the join-point problem. In this paper, we propose a method of solving...

Use of a mixed integer programming model to achieve an optimum size of blast block in open-pit mining with regard to size of mineable block using fuzzy logic approach

In this paper, we present an integrated model to find the optimum size of blast block that uses (i) a multi-criteria decision-making method to specify the applicable size of the mineable block; (ii) a linear programming method for the selection of the blasted areas to be excavated and in deciding the quantity of ores and wastes to be mined from each one of the selected blocks. These two methods...

Using the Bootstrap to Estimate the Variance from a Single Systematic PPS Sample

1.0 Introduction Systematic sampling (either with equal or unequal selection probabilities) is a common sampling scheme in complex sample designs. It is used because of its simplicity of implementation and its potential increase in efficiency, given a good frame ordering, which acts as an additional stratification. One problem with systematic sampling is that such samples can be viewed as a clu...
