In Example 12.6.7, let \(\left( {{X^*},{Y^*}} \right)\) be a random draw from the sample distribution\({F_n}\) . Prove that the correlation \({X^*} and {Y^*}\) is R in Eq. (12.6.2).

Short Answer

Expert verified

\(R = \frac{{\sum\limits_{i = 1}^n {\left( {{X_i} - \bar X} \right)} \left( {{Y_i} - \bar Y} \right)}}{{\sqrt {\sum\limits_{i = 1}^n {{{\left( {{X_i} - \bar X} \right)}^2}} \sum\limits_{i = 1}^n {{{\left( {{Y_i} - \bar Y} \right)}^2}} } }}\)

Step by step solution

01

To Prove that the correlation between \({X^*} and {Y^*}\) is R 

The correlation coefficient of X and Y is

\({\rho _{X,Y}} = \frac{{Cov(X,Y)}}{{{\sigma _X} \times {\sigma _Y}}}\)

Notice first that for such a random sample from the sample distribution,\({F_n}\)the expected values are

\(\begin{aligned}{l}E\left( {{X^*}} \right) &= \bar X\\E\left( {{Y^*}} \right) &= \bar Y\end{aligned}\)

and the variances are given by

\(\begin{aligned}{l}V\left( {{X^*}} \right) &= \frac{1}{n}\sum\limits_{i = 1}^n {{{\left( {{X_i} - \bar X} \right)}^2}} \\\\V\left( {{Y^*}} \right) &= \frac{1}{n}\sum\limits_{i = 1}^n {{{\left( {{Y_i} - \bar Y} \right)}^2}} \end{aligned}\)

Finally, to get the sample correlation coefficient of

\(R = \frac{{\sum\limits_{i = 1}^n {\left( {{X_i} - \bar X} \right)} \left( {{Y_i} - \bar Y} \right)}}{{\sqrt {\sum\limits_{i = 1}^n {{{\left( {{X_i} - \bar X} \right)}^2}} \sum\limits_{i = 1}^n {{{\left( {{Y_i} - \bar Y} \right)}^2}} } }}\)

it notices that the covariance\(is Cov(X,Y)\)is

\(\begin{aligned}{l}Cov(X,Y) &= E\left( {\left( {{X^*} - \bar X} \right)\left( {{Y^*} - \bar Y} \right)} \right)\\\\ &= \sum\limits_{i = 1}^n {\left( {{X_i} - \bar X} \right)} \left( {{Y_i} - \bar Y} \right)\end{aligned}\)

Because the sample distribution\({F_n}\)is discrete. Finally, by substituting all values and using the fact that\({\sigma _{{X^*}}} = \sqrt {V\left( {{X^*}} \right)} \)it is true that

\(\begin{aligned}{l}{\rho _{X,Y}} &= \frac{{Cov(X,Y)}}{{{\sigma _X} \times {\sigma _Y}}}\\\\ &= \frac{{\sum\limits_{i = 1}^n {\left( {{X_i} - \bar X} \right)} \left( {{Y_i} - \bar Y} \right)}}{{\sqrt {\sum\limits_{i = 1}^n {{{\left( {{X_i} - \bar X} \right)}^2}} \sum\limits_{i = 1}^n {{{\left( {{Y_i} - \bar Y} \right)}^2}} } }}\quad \quad \end{aligned}\)

Use the blood pressure data in Table 9.2 that was described in Exercise 10 of Sec. 9.6. Suppose now that we are not confident that the variances are the same for the two treatment groups. Perform a parametric bootstrap analysis of the sort done in Example 12.6.10. Use v=10,000 bootstrap simulations.

a. Estimate the probability of type I error for a two-sample t-test whose nominal level is \({\alpha _0} = 0.1.\)

b. Correct the level of the two-sample t-test by computing the appropriate quantile of the bootstrap distribution of \(\left| {{U^{(i)}}} \right|.\)

c. Compute the standard simulation error for the quantile in part (b).

Let \({{\bf{z}}_{\scriptstyle{\bf{1}}\atop\scriptstyle\,}}{\bf{,}}{{\bf{z}}_{\scriptstyle{\bf{2}}\atop\scriptstyle\,}}....\) from a Markov chain, and assume that distribution of \({z_{\scriptstyle1\atop\scriptstyle\,}}\)is the stationary distribution. Show that the joint distribution \(\left( {{{\bf{z}}_{\scriptstyle{\bf{1}}\atop\scriptstyle\,}}{\bf{,}}{{\bf{z}}_{\scriptstyle{\bf{2}}\atop\scriptstyle\,}}} \right)\)of is the same as the joint distribution of \(\left( {{{\bf{z}}_{\scriptstyle{\bf{i}}\atop\scriptstyle\,}}{\bf{,}}{{\bf{z}}_{\scriptstyle{\bf{i + 1}}\atop\scriptstyle\,}}} \right)\) for all\(i > 1\) convenience, you may assume that the Markov chain has finite state space, but the result holds in general.

Assume that one can simulate as many \({\bf{i}}.{\bf{i}}.{\bf{d}}.\)exponential random variables with parameters\({\bf{1}}\) as one wishes. Explain how one could use simulation to approximate the mean of the exponential distribution with parameters\({\bf{1}}\).

Suppose that we wish to approximate the integral\(\int g (x)dx\). Suppose that we have a p.d.f. \(f\)that we shall use as an importance function. Suppose that \(g(x)/f(x)\) is bounded. Prove that the importance sampling estimator has finite variance.
