Bootstrap
•
Bootstrapping is a nonparametric method
•
It allows estimation of uncertainty and confidence
intervals
•
Artificial new samples of the same size are made by
drawing with replacement from the set of real data
•
The assumption is that drawing with replacement
from the sample is similar to drawing new samples
•
Hence, the sample should be large enough to be
representative of the entire population
