Description
Summary:This monograph presents an account of the asymptotic behaviour of the weighted bootstrap - a new and powerful statistical technique. Researchers and advanced graduate students studying bootstrap methods will find this a valuable technical survey which is thorough and rigorous. The main aim of this book is to answer two questions: How well does the generalized bootstrap work? What are the differences between all the different weighted schemes? Readers are assumed to have already some familiarity with the bootstrap, but otherwise the account is as self-contained as possible. Proofs are presented in detail, though some lengthy calculations are deferred to appendices.
