Confidence intervals centred on bootstrap smoothed estimators: an impossibility result
Paul Kabaila, Christeen Wijethunga
Recently, Kabaila and Wijethunga assessed the performance of a confidence interval centred on a bootstrap smoothed estimator, with width proportional to an estimator of Efron's del…
Finite sample properties of the Buckland-Burnham-Augustin confidence interval centered on a model averaged estimator
Paul Kabaila, Alan H. Welsh, Christeen Wijethunga
We consider the confidence interval centered on a frequentist model averaged estimator that was proposed by Buckland, Burnham & Augustin (1997). In the context of a simple testbed…
On confidence intervals centered on bootstrap smoothed estimators
Paul Kabaila, Christeen Wijethunga
Bootstrap smoothed (bagged) estimators have been proposed as an improvement on estimators found after preliminary data-based model selection. Efron, 2014, derived a widely applicab…
Computation of the expected value of a function of a chi-distributed random variable
Paul Kabaila, Nishika Ranathunga
We consider the problem of numerically evaluating the expected value of a smooth bounded function of a chi-distributed random variable, divided by the square root of the number of…
