To introduce and evaluate a novel non-parametric resampling method using kernel smoothing and representative points for improved statistical inference.
Formulated a resampling distribution based on representative points and kernel smoothing, mathematically verifying convergence for sample mean and variance under Kolmogorov and Mallows-Wasserstein metrics.
Conducted Monte Carlo simulations and analyzed two real-world datasets to evaluate confidence interval coverage compared to standard parametric and non-parametric bootstrap approaches.
The representative point resampling approach consistently enhanced confidence interval coverage rates over conventional non-parametric bootstrap methods.
The proposed technique performed competitively against parametric bootstrap methods, showing particular efficacy in scenarios with small sample sizes.
