Re-sampling methods for estimating the distribution of descriptive statistics of functional data are considered. Through Monte-Carlo simulations, we compare the performance of several re-sampling methods commonly used for estimating the distribution of descriptive statistics. We introduce two re-sampling methods that rely on functional principal component analysis, where the scores were randoml...

UNLABELLED Here we describe an automated and customizable program to correct, filter and normalize raw microarray data captured using GenePix, a commonly used microarray image analysis application. Files can be processed individually or in batch mode for increased throughput. User defined inputs specify the stringency of data filtering and the method and conditions of normalization. The output ...

A general notion of a bootstrapped mean constructed by exchangeably weighting sample points is introduced. Consistency of this generalized bootstrapped mean, which includes proposals of Efron and Rubin among others, is proved by classical linear rank statistics theory. The consistency of generalized bootstrapped empirical and quantile processes is also established.
