Jackknife, the Bootstrap, and Other Resampling Plans

This monograph connects the jackknife, the bootstrap, and many other related ideas such as cross-validation, random subsampling, and balanced repeated replications into a unified exposition. The theoretical development is at an easy mathematical level and is supplemented by a large number of numerical examples. The methods described in this monograph form a useful set of tools for the applied statistician. They are particularly useful in problem areas where complicated data structures are common, for example, in censoring, missing data, and highly multivariate situations.Efron, Bradley is the author of 'Jackknife, the Bootstrap, and Other Resampling Plans' with ISBN 9780898711790 and ISBN 0898711797.
