Boostrapping is used to sample from your sample to get a measure of accuracy of your statistics. | |||
===Nonparametric Bootstrapping=== | |||
In nonparametric bootstrapping, you resample from your sample with replacement.<br> | |||
In this scenario, you don't need to know the family of distributions that your sample comes from. | |||
===Parametric Bootstrapping=== | |||
In parametric bootstrapping, you learn the distribution parameters of your sample, e.g. with MLE.<br> | |||
Then you can generate samples from that distribution on a computer. | |||
