Resampling Techniques

Member Training: A Predictive Modeling Primer: Regression and Beyond

by guest contributer 

Predicting future outcomes, the next steps in a process, or the best choice(s) from an array of possibilities are all essential needs in many fields. The predictive model is used as a decision making tool in advertising and marketing, meteorology, economics, insurance, health care, engineering, and would probably be useful in your work too!

Member Training: Resampling Techniques

by Karen Grace-Martin  Leave a Comment

All resampling techniques are based on the idea of repeatedly estimating a statistic based on subsets of the sample.

There are many practical applications, including estimating standard errors when they can’t be based on a theoretical distribution (a.k.a., when distributional assumptions are not met).

In this webinar, we’ll talk about some of the most common resampling techniques, including the jacknife and bootstrap, how they work, and situations in which they’re useful.

Note: This training is an exclusive benefit to members of the Statistically Speaking Membership Program and part of the Stat’s Amore Trainings Series. Each Stat’s Amore Training is approximately 90 minutes long.
