Statistical Resampling Algorithm

A Statistical Resampling Algorithm is a resampling algorithm that uses statistical sampling principles to estimate sampling distributions and statistical parameters.

• AKA: Statistical Resampling Method, Resampling-Based Inference Algorithm.
• Context:
  • It can (typically) generate Resampled Datasets through systematic sampling procedures.
  • It can (typically) estimate Statistical Uncertainty without parametric assumptions.
  • It can (typically) provide Empirical Distributions for complex statistics.
  • It can (typically) support Statistical Inference Tasks through computational approaches.
  • ...
  • It can (often) replace Analytical Derivations with simulation-based estimations.
  • It can (often) handle Non-Standard Distributions through empirical methods.
  • ...
  • It can range from being a Simple Statistical Resampling Algorithm to being a Complex Statistical Resampling Algorithm, depending on its sampling complexity.
  • It can range from being a Parametric Statistical Resampling Algorithm to being a Non-Parametric Statistical Resampling Algorithm, depending on its distribution assumptions.
  • It can range from being a With-Replacement Statistical Resampling Algorithm to being a Without-Replacement Statistical Resampling Algorithm, depending on its sampling strategy.
  • It can range from being a Independent Statistical Resampling Algorithm to being a Dependent Statistical Resampling Algorithm, depending on its data structure handling.
  • ...
• Example(s):
  • Bootstrap Resampling Algorithms for confidence interval estimation.
  • Jackknife Algorithms for bias reduction.
  • Permutation Test Algorithms for hypothesis testing.
  • Block Bootstrap Algorithms for dependent data.
  • Cross-Validation Algorithms for model validation.
  • ...
• Counter-Example(s):
  • Deterministic Sampling Algorithms, which use fixed sampling rules.
  • Analytical Statistical Methods, which derive exact formulas.
  • Monte Carlo Algorithms, which generate new data rather than resample existing data.
