Abstract

The bootstrap is a computationally intensive data resampling methodology for assessing the accuracy of statistical estimates and for making inferences about unknown population parameters. This article provides an introduction to the ordinary non-parametric bootstrap, with a focus on two applications that are of particular relevance to bioinformatics: bootstrap confidence intervals and bootstrap error estimates of predictive performance.
