This is typically done by producing a bootstrap version of the sample and plugging it into the statistic. We suggest an alternative approach of getting a bootstrap version of U-statistics, which can be described as a compromise between bootstrap and subsampling. We will show the consistency of the new method and compare its finite sample properties in a simulation study.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2015-05-27T10:38:48.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "u-statistics", "bootstrap version", "finite sample properties", "nonlinear statistics", "dependent data" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
