2. Resampling (statistics) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Resampling_(statistics)

   The best example of the plug-in principle, the bootstrapping method. Bootstrapping is a statistical method for estimating the sampling distribution of an estimator by sampling with replacement from the original sample, most often with the purpose of deriving robust estimates of standard errors and confidence intervals of a population parameter like a mean, median, proportion, odds ratio ...

3. Bootstrapping (statistics) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bootstrapping_(statistics)

   The bootstrap sample is taken from the original by using sampling with replacement (e.g. we might 'resample' 5 times from [1,2,3,4,5] and get [2,5,4,4,1]), so, assuming N is sufficiently large, for all practical purposes there is virtually zero probability that it will be identical to the original "real" sample. This process is repeated a large ...

4. Sample size determination - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sample_size_determination

   The sample size is an important feature of any empirical study in which the goal is to make inferences about a population from a sample. In practice, the sample size used in a study is usually determined based on the cost, time, or convenience of collecting the data, and the need for it to offer sufficient statistical power. In complex studies ...

5. Simple random sample - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simple_random_sample

   In small populations and often in large ones, such sampling is typically done "without replacement", i.e., one deliberately avoids choosing any member of the population more than once. Although simple random sampling can be conducted with replacement instead, this is less common and would normally be described more fully as simple random ...

6. Balanced repeated replication - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Balanced_repeated_replication

   Let a be the value of our statistic as calculated from the full sample; let a i (i = 1,...,n) be the corresponding statistics calculated for the half-samples. (n is the number of half-samples.) Then our estimate for the sampling variance of the statistic is the average of (a i − a) 2. This is (at least in the ideal case) an unbiased estimate ...

7. Sampling (statistics) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sampling_(statistics)

   Sampling schemes may be without replacement ('WOR' – no element can be selected more than once in the same sample) or with replacement ('WR' – an element may appear multiple times in the one sample). For example, if we catch fish, measure them, and immediately return them to the water before continuing with the sample, this is a WR design ...

9. Sampling distribution - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sampling_distribution

   In statistics, a sampling distribution or finite-sample distribution is the probability distribution of a given random-sample-based statistic.For an arbitrarily large number of samples where each sample, involving multiple observations (data points), is separately used to compute one value of a statistic (for example, the sample mean or sample variance) per sample, the sampling distribution is ...
