Abstract

We describe a bootstrap method for estimating mean squared error and smoothing parameter in nonparametric problems. The method involves using a resample of smaller size than the original sample. There are many applications, which are illustrated using the special cases of nonparametric density estimation, nonparametric regression, and tail parameter estimation.
