Features
Sampling procedures
Make parallel. Make sparse??
Good stuff here <https://github.com/facebookincubator/bootstrapped/tree/master/bootstrapped> for checking out thread safe plus sparse arrays.
Though the initial implementation should be thread safe iterators that can be materialized into sparse representations of the original data. You should be able to yield batches as well.
To do the more complicated sampling methods we can see Julia <https://github.com/juliangehring/Bootstrap.jl>
- With/without replacement
2. Antithetic resampling 2. Balanced random resampling 2. Exact resampling, iterating through all unique resamples 2. Resampling of residuals in generalized linear models (question on whether to do this here or with the regressions below)
- Jackknife... Maybe this should just be joined with the more complex methods
- Parametric sampling
Sampling Statistics
- Standard Error
- Bias estimates
Confidence Intervals
For these we can see Julia <https://github.com/juliangehring/Bootstrap.jl>
- Student t intervals
- Normal intervals
- Percentile Intervals
- BCA
- ABC
Regression
Tests
Permutation Tests Bootstrap Hypothesis Testing Power calculations Good stuff here <https://github.com/facebookincubator/bootstrapped/tree/master/bootstrapped> This will be useful for checking out the visualizations they include with the power calc
Calibration
General Features
- Optimize number of bootstrap replications with coef of var and time
- Time estimates of replications (on multiple cores)
- Estimates of error in bootstrap estimates (Intro to the Boot, 19)
- Efficiency: (Intro to the Boot, 23)
Meta Features
Perhaps have a general multisample tool, though looks like we might just be able to build it into specific areas above.
