Estimator Statistics from Simulation-Free Dirichlet Block-Bootstrap Resampling
Since the initiation of two variants of the bootstrap method by Efron and Rubin in the late 1970s, a variety of advancements has emerged in the literature. The subsampling of blocks enabled the estimation of the actual variance of the sample mean.

Comparison of nonparametric estimators versus parametric for reliability function
One of the main objectives of the area of realiability is to estimate the function of reliability, where traditionally are used non parametric estimators, being more efficient in sample of big sizes.

On Testing the Adequacy of the Inverse Gaussian Distribution
We propose a new class of goodness-of-fit tests for the inverse Gaussian distribution based on a characterization of the cumulative distribution function (CDF). The new tests are of weighted L2-type depending on a tuning parameter.

Analysis of maximum precipitation in Thailand using non‐stationary extreme value models
Non‐stationarity in heavy rainfall time series is often apparent in the form of trends because of long‐term climate changes. We have built non‐stationary (NS) models for annual maximum daily (AMP1) and 2‐day precipitation (AMP2) data observed between ...

Bootstrap for estimating the mean squared error of the spatial EBLUP [PDF]
This work assumes that the small area quantities of interest follow a Fay-Herriot model with spatially correlated random area effects. Under this model, parametric and nonparametric bootstrap procedures are proposed for estimating the mean squared ...

Detecting circulating tumor cells (CTCs) in blood before surgery may help predict outcomes in patients with head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC). Here, we show when combined with tumor size and lymph node involvement from routine imaging, CTC status identifies high‐risk patients with poorer survival—offering a simple, minimally invasive tool ...

Molecular characterization of covRS mutations in M1UK Streptococcus pyogenes
Group A Streptococcus (GAS) acquires covRS mutations driving a hypervirulent bacterial state, frequently associated with invasive disease‐like necrotizing fasciitis. We demonstrate that the newly emerged M1UK GAS lineage can also acquire these mutations.

Pretesting Count Time Series With Application to Epidemiology: A Fast-Double Bootstrap Approach
Introduction Integer Autoregressive Models (INAR) have demonstrated their versatility in applications involving epidemiological count data [1]. Among the possible model specifications, the equidispersed first-order Poisson INAR (1) represents a ...

The presence of biotin‐binding avidin proteins in fish and their biological significance are poorly characterized. We cataloged fish avidins and demonstrate that they are widely present and evolutionarily conserved. We created avd knockout zebrafish and show that zebavidin is dispensable for development and that resistance of avd knockout embryos in ...
