	Bootstrapping - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		In compiler design, a bootstrap or bootstrapping compiler is a compiler that is written in the target language, or a subset of the language, that it compiles.
		In statistics bootstrapping is a method for estimating the sampling distribution of an estimator by resampling with replacement from the original sample.
		Bootstrapping is not well-studied or understood in Academia.

	1.3.3.4. Bootstrap Plot
		The bootstrap (Efron and Gong) plot is used to estimate the uncertainty of a statistic.
		To generate a bootstrap uncertainty estimate for a given statistic from a set of data, a subsample of a size less than or equal to the size of the data set is generated from the data, and the statistic is calculated.
		For example, because of the shape of the uniform distribution, the bootstrap is not appropriate for estimating the distribution of statistics that are heavily dependent on the tails, such as the range.

	Bootstrap aggregating - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Bootstrap aggregating (bagging) is a meta-algorithm to improve classification and regression models in terms of stability and classification accuracy.
		The L models are fitted using the above L bootstrap samples and combined by averaging the output (in case of regression) or voting (in case of classification).
		Bagging (Bootstrap aggregating) was proposed by Leo Beiman in 1996 to improve the classification by combining classifications of randomly generated training sets.

	Bootstrap, with detail, Sarle
		Bootstrap Confidence Intervals Copyright (C) 1995 by Warren S. Sarle, Cary, NC, USA Confidence Intervals -------------------- The normal (standard) bootstrap confidence interval is accurate only for statistics with an approximately normal sampling distribution.
		The bootstrap t interval has a wildy negative lower limit, and the upper limit is rather low, but the interval covers the true value.
		Among the jackknife and bootstrap methods, the only acceptable coverage probability is for the bootstrap t interval, which is nevertheless very poor with regard to the length of the interval.

	Bootstrap Institute: About BI
		The Bootstrap Institute was conceived by Dr. Douglas C. Engelbart to further his lifelong career goal of boosting individual and organizational ability to better address problems that are complex and urgent.
		The Bootstrap Institute is a California corporation under the law, but it functions more as a non-profit organization.
		It is essentially these perceptions that have underlain the researches by Engelbart and his team, work that laid to many innovations in computing and is now continuing in the development of an open hyperdocument system.

	VBA10 - Bootstrap - A Non-Parametric Approach
		Bootstrap is a derivation of Monte Carlo technique introduced by Efron in 1979.
		Another use of Bootstrap is to populate sample data when the original sample size is small (but notice that Bootstrap works the best with large sample size as all other statistical methods do).
		The bootstrap shows that the mean median is 3.0792 and the standard deviation is 0.0732.

	fUSION Anomaly. Bootstrapping
		Bootstrapping is the problem of starting a certain system without the system already functioning.
		However solutions, accordingly called bootstrapping, exist; they are processes whereby a complex system emerges by starting simply and, bit by bit, developing more complex capabilities on top of the simpler ones.
		Bootstrapping is generally a longer term for booting, or the process of starting up any computer.

	Bootstrap
		The variance of these re-sampled averages is an estimate of the variance of the original sample mean.
		The bootstrap is a generalization of the jackknife that re-samples, with replacement, some number of times (say 1000), and computes the statistic of interest from these re-samples, thereby providing an estimate of the original sample's variability.
		While this simple algorithm works quite well, it is termed a "naive" bootstrap because easily implemented improvements can be made to reduce potential bias.

		The bootstrap is a powerful technique for assessing the accuracy of a parameter estimator in situations where conventional techniques are not valid.
		The bootstrap does with a computer what the experimenter would do in practice if it were possible: he or she would repeat the experiment.
		With the bootstrap, the observations are randomly reassigned, and estimates recomputed.

	udk: Uno Bootstrap Specification
		While introducing a simple concept for UNO bootstrapping (see my mail in the udk.dev list), I noticed that there is a need for a general bootstrap-argument-passing-mechanism.
		Bootstrap arguments which should be passed via command line, must have a special shape, so that they are distinguishable from other command line arguments:
		Several things are needed to bootstrap a UNO application, for example the services the application wants to utilize or the types of the services, if they are not compiled in.

		The Bootstrap Student group was founded by Ryan Pitylak and Michael Griffin: two serial entrepreneurs who have bootstrapped and built successful companies while completing their degrees at the University of Texas at Austin.

	Bootstrap Institute: Engelbart biography
		Motivating that framework were, and still are the assumptions that complexity and urgency are increasing exponentially and that the combination of these two will soon challenge our organizations, be they private or public, to henceforth do their changing by effective, continuing strategic principles rather than in incremental steps.
		In the spirit of this bootstrapping strategy, Engelbart proposed that an early target for these workers should be augmented support structures for organizational improvement activities, especially by raising the competence of the designers, implementers, and deployers of tools and practices.
		This bootstrapping community would jointly pioneer future work modes, enabled by advanced, rapidly evolving prototypes, and pioneer better and better strategies for designing, implementing, and transforming those work modes into common practice.

	Stata Bookstore: An Introduction to the Bootstrap
		The bootstrap broadly refers to a continually growing collection of methodologies in which data are resampled to incorporate into statistical inference the information contained in the data regarding their probability distribution.
		The distinction between the nonparametric bootstrap and the parametric bootstrap is then discussed, and the impact of the number of bootstrap samples on the estimated standard errors is assessed.
		The middle chapters of the text explore bootstrapping different data structures, issues unique to regression models, bootstrap estimates of bias, the jackknife, several forms of bootstrap confidence intervals, permutation tests, hypothesis testing, estimates of prediction error, and using the bootstrap to find an optimal smoothing parameter in nonparametric regression.

	Bootstrap - TunesWiki (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
		A term for the issue of, or for a specific technique for, bringing a system in a desired state by means of a (simple, rough, ad-hoc) subsystem which can perform the task with no external aid, and which is usually discarded as the global desired state has been reached.
		The most typical example of bootstrapping is about loading in memory the program loader of a conventional operating system.
		The mothertongue must therefore be used as a bootstrap language, an issue which is closely related to that of establishing a common ontological committment (see the voice ontology).

	[No title]
		Overview This RFC describes an IP/UDP bootstrap protocol (BOOTP) which allows a diskless client machine to discover its own IP address, the address of a server host, and the name of a file to be loaded into memory and executed.
		After this address and filename information is obtained, control passes to the second phase of the bootstrap where a file transfer occurs.
		For example, a workstation client could provide Croft & Gilmore [Page 8] RFC 951 September 1985 Bootstrap Protocol an authentication key and receive from the server a capability for remote file access, or a set of configuration options, which can be passed to the operating system that will shortly be booted in.
