| Starting with a [[Statistical sample|sample]] <math>\{x_1,\ldots,x_m\}</math> observed from a [[random variable]] ''X'' having a given [[cumulative distribution function|distribution law]] with a set of non fixed parameters which we denote with a vector <math>\boldsymbol\theta</math>, a [[Parametric statistics|parametric inference]] problem consists of computing suitable values – call them [[estimator|estimates]] – of these parameters precisely on the basis of the sample. An estimate is suitable if replacing it with the unknown parameter does not cause major damage in next computations. In [[Algorithmic inference]], suitability of an estimate reads in terms of [[Algorithmic inference#compatible distribution|compatibility]] with the observed sample.
| |
| | |
| In this framework, [[Resampling (statistics)|resampling methods]] are aimed at generating a set of candidate values to replace the unknown parameters that we read as compatible replicas of them. They represent a population of specifications of a random vector <math>\boldsymbol\Theta</math> <ref>By default, capital letters (such as ''U'', ''X'') will denote random variables and small letters (''u'', ''x'') their corresponding realizations.</ref> compatible with an observed sample, where the compatibility of its values has the properties of a probability distribution. By plugging parameters into the expression of the questioned distribution law, we bootstrap entire populations of random variables [[Algorithmic inference#compatible distribution|compatible]] with the observed sample.
| |
| | |
| The rationale of the algorithms computing the replicas, which we denote ''population bootstrap'' procedures, is to identify a set of statistics <math>\{s_1,\ldots,s_k\}</math> exhibiting specific properties, denoting a [[Well-behaved statistic|well behavior]], w.r.t. the unknown parameters. The statistics are expressed as functions of the observed values <math>\{x_1,\ldots,x_m\}</math>, by definition. The <math>x_i</math> may be expressed as a function of the unknown parameters and a random seed specification <math>z_i</math> through the [[Algorithmic inference#Sampling mechanism|sampling mechanism]] <math>(g_{\boldsymbol\theta},Z)</math>, in turn. Then, by plugging the second expression in the former, we obtain <math>s_j</math> expressions as functions of seeds and parameters – the [[Algorithmic inference#Master equation|master equations]] – that we invert to find values of the latter as a function of: i) the statistics, whose values in turn are fixed at the observed ones; and ii) the seeds, which are random according to their own distribution. Hence from a set of seed samples we obtain a set of parameter replicas.

| == Method ==
| |
| | |
| Given a <math>\boldsymbol x=\{x_1,\ldots,x_m\}</math> of a random variable ''X'' and a [[Algorithmic inference#Sampling mechanism|sampling mechanism]] <math>(g_{\boldsymbol\theta},Z)</math> for ''X'', the realization '''x''' is given by <math>\boldsymbol x=\{g_{\boldsymbol\theta}(z_1),\ldots,g_{\boldsymbol\theta}(z_m)\}</math>, with <math>\boldsymbol\theta=(\theta_1,\ldots,\theta_k)</math>. Focusing on [[well-behaved statistic]]s,
| |
| | |
| :{|
| |

| |
| | <math>s_1=h_1(x_1,\ldots,x_m),</math>
| |
| |-
| |
| | <math>\vdots\ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \vdots</math>
| |
| |-
| |
| | <math>s_k=h_k(x_1,\ldots,x_m),</math>
| |
| |}
| |
| | |
| for their parameters, the master equations read | |
| | |
| :{| width=100%
| |
| |-
| |
| | <math>s_1= h_1(g_{\boldsymbol\theta} (z_1),\ldots, g_{\boldsymbol\theta} (z_m))= \rho_1(\boldsymbol\theta;z_1,\ldots,z_m)</math>
| |

| |

| | width=10% align="center" | (1)
| |
| |-
| |
| | <math>s_k= h_k(g_{\boldsymbol\theta} (z_1),\ldots, g_{\boldsymbol\theta} (z_m))= \rho_k(\boldsymbol\theta;z_1,\ldots,z_m).</math>
| |
| |}
| |
| | |
| For each sample seed <math>\{z_1,\ldots,z_m\}</math> a vector of parameters <math>\boldsymbol\theta</math> is obtained from the solution of the above system with <math>s_i</math> fixed to the observed values.
| |
| Having computed a huge set of compatible vectors, say ''N'', the empirical marginal distribution of <math>\Theta_j</math> is obtaineded by:
| |
|
| |
| :{| width=100% | |
| |-
| |
| | width=90% | <math>\widehat F_{\Theta_j}(\theta)=\sum_{i=1}^N\frac{1}{N}I_{(-\infty,\theta]}(\breve\theta_{j,i})</math>
| |
| | width=10% align="center" | (2)
| |
| |}
| |
| | |
| where <math>\breve\theta_{j,i}</math> is the j-th component of the generic solution of (1) and where <math>I_{(-\infty,\theta]}(\breve\theta_{j,i})</math> is the [[indicator function]] of <math>\breve\theta_{j,i}</math> in the interval <math>(-\infty,\theta].</math>
| |
| Some indeterminacies remain if ''X'' is discrete and this we will be considered shortly.
| |
| The whole procedure may be summed up in the form of the following Algorithm, where the index <math>\boldsymbol\Theta</math> of <math>\boldsymbol s_{\boldsymbol\Theta}</math> denotes the parameter vector from which the statistics vector is derived.

| :<math>\text{iii) Inv}(s_A,\boldsymbol u_i) =s_A/\max_{j=1,\ldots,m}\{u_{ij}\}</math>.
| |
| | |
| ===Remark===
| |
| Note that the accuracy with which a parameter distribution law of
| |
| populations compatible with a sample is obtained is not a function of the sample size. Instead, it is a function of the number of seeds we draw. In turn, this number is purely a matter of computational time but does not require any extension of the observed data. With other [[Bootstrapping (statistics)|bootstrapping methods]] focusing on a generation of sample replicas (like those proposed by {{harv|Efron and Tibshirani|1993}}) the accuracy of the estimate distributions depends on the sample size.
| |
| | |
| ===Example===
| |
| For <math>\boldsymbol x</math> expected to represent a [[Pareto distribution]], whose specification requires values for the parameters <math>a</math> and ''k'',<ref>We denote here with symbols ''a'' and ''k'' the Pareto parameters [[Pareto distribution|elsewhere]] indicated through ''k'' and <math>x_{\mathrm{min}}</math>.</ref> we have that the cumulative distribution function reads:
| |
| [[Image:Paretocdf.png|frame|thunbail|right|100px|Joint empirical cumulative distribution function of parameters <math>(A,K)</math> of a Pareto random variable when <math>m=30, s_1=83.24</math> and <math>s_{2}=8.37</math> based on 5,000 replicas.]]
| |
| | |
| :<math>F_X(x)=1-\left(\frac{k}{x}\right)^a</math>.
| |
| | |
| A [[Algorithmic inference#Sampling mechanism|sampling mechanism]] <math>(g_{(a,k)}, U)</math> has <math>[0,1]</math> [[Uniform distribution (continuous)|uniform seed]] ''U'' and explaining function <math>g_{(a,k)}</math> described by:
| |
| | |
| :<math>x= g_{(a,k)}=(1 - u)^{-\frac{1}{a}} k</math>
| |
|
| |
| A relevant statistic <math>\boldsymbol s_\boldsymbol\Theta</math> is constituted by the pair of [[Sufficiency (statistics)|joint sufficient statistics]] for <math>A</math> and ''K'', respectively <math>s_1=\sum_{i=1}^m \log x_i, s_{2}=\min\{x_i\}</math>.
| |
| The [[Algorithmic inference#Master equation|master equations]] read
| |
| | |
| :<math>s_1=\sum_{i=1}^m -\frac{1}{a}\log(1 - u_i)+m \log k</math>
| |
| | |
| :<math>s_{2}=(1 - u_{\min})^{-\frac{1}{a}} k</math>
