Calculates bootstrapped GS-estimates and bootstrap confidence intervals using the Fast and Robust Bootstrap method.

|
X |
a matrix or data frame containing the explanatory variables (possibly including intercept). |
Y |
a matrix or data frame containing the response variables. |
R |
number of bootstrap samples. Default is |
conf |
confidence level of the bootstrap confidence intervals. Default is |
ests |
GS-estimates as returned by |
Called by FRBmultiregGS
and typically not to
be used on its own. If no original GS-estimates are provided the function calls GSest_multireg
with its default settings.
The fast and robust bootstrap was first introduced by Salibian-Barrera and Zamar (2002) for univariate regression MM-estimators and developed for GS-estimates by Roelant et al. (2009).
The value centered
gives a matrix with R
columns and p*q+q*q rows (p is the number of explanatory variables
and q is the number of response variables), containing the recalculated GS-estimates. Each column represents a different bootstrap sample.
The first p*q rows are the recalculated coefficient estimates and the next q*q rows are the covariance estimates
(the estimates are vectorized, i.e. columns stacked on top of each other). These bootstrap estimates are centered by the original
estimates, which are also returned through vecest
in vectorized form.
The output list further contains bootstrap standard errors, as well as so-called basic bootstrap confidence intervals and bias corrected and accelerated confidence intervals (Davison and Hinkley, 1997, p.194 and p.204 respectively). Also in the output are p-values defined as 1 minus the smallest confidence level for which the confidence intervals would include the (hypothesised) value of zero. Both BCa and basic bootstrap p-values are given. These are only useful for the regression coefficient estimates (not really for the covariance estimates).
Bootstrap samples which contain too few distinct observations with positive weights are discarded
(a warning is given if this happens). The number of samples actually used is returned via ROK
.
A list containing the following components:
centered |
a matrix of all fast and robust bootstrap recalculations where the recalculations are centered by the original estimates (see Details) |
vecest |

bootstrap standard errors for the estimates in |
cov |
bootstrap covariance matrix for the estimates in |
CI.bca |
a matrix containing bias corrected and accelerated confidence intervals, corresponding to the
estimates in |

estimates in |
p.bca |
a vector containing p-values based on the bias corrected and accelerated confidence intervals (corresponding to the
estimates in |
p.basic |

estimates in |
