A Rank Statistics Approach to the Consistency of a General Bootstrap
用秩统计理论研究一般 Bootstrap 的一致性
A general notion of a bootstrapped mean constructed by exchangeably weighting sample points is introduced. Consistency of this generalized bootstrapped mean, which includes proposals of Efron and Rubin among others, is proved by classical linear rank statistics theory. The consistency of generalized bootstrapped empirical and quantile processes is also established.
