โœฆ Synopsis


It is well known that the ordinary bootstrap distribution of the median is consistent. We show that for bootstrap samples of size m, an Edgeworth expansion holds with reminder term Op(1=m + m -1=4 log m= โˆš n). With extrapolation this gives a best possible rate estimate of the distribution.

Simple algorithms are presented to compute both the exact probability of M or more out of N independent input events given unequal probabilities and, when there is uncertainty in the input event probabilities, the associated variance in the M-out-of-N probability. The performance of the M-out-of-N p
