MATLAB, Bootstrap Confidence Intervals

1. Bootstrap confidence interval

Hi,

"bootci" from statistics toolbox can find the confidence interval for
a parameter.

I have an older version of statistics toolbox, which do not have this
command. Is there any other way to find the confidence interval.

Thanks in advance,
Raj

3. bootstrapped 95% confidence ellipse

I need to add a 95% confidence ellipse to an XY scatter plot.
Schwarz's CONFELLIPSE2 code below, submitted to this group in 1998,
will do this, However, I'd like to produce a Bootstrapped confidence
ellipse. I can use BOOTSTRP in the Statistics Toolbox to resample with
replacement and obtain a bootstrap statistic...I'm just unsure WHAT to
bootstrap.

Any suggestions?

Dave



-----BEGIN MATLAB CODE:-----
function [hh,exy] = confellipse2(xy,conf)
%CONFELLIPSE2 Draws a confidence ellipse.
% CONFELLIPSE2(XY,CONF) draws a confidence ellipse on the current axes
%   which is calculated from the n-by-2 matrix XY and encloses the
%   fraction CONF (e.g., 0.95 for a 95% confidence ellipse).
% H = CONFELLIPSE2(...) returns a handle to the line.

n = size(xy,1);
mxy = mean(xy);

numPts = 181;   % The number of points in the ellipse.
th = linspace(0,2*pi,numPts)';


p = 2;  % Dimensionality of the data, 2-D in this case.

k = finv(conf,p,n-p)*p*(n-1)/(n-p);

[pc,score,lat] = princomp(xy);


ab = diag(sqrt(k*lat));
exy = [cos(th),sin(th)]*ab*pc' + repmat(mxy,numPts,1);

% Add ellipse to current plot
h = line(exy(:,1),exy(:,2),'Clipping','off');
if nargout > 0
   hh = h;

5. confidence intervals regress

Hi there,

Suppose I have the simple linear model y=b0+b1*x1+b2*x2+e.
I want to estimate b0,b1,b2 and calculate a confidence 
interval for them. Then I want to see how many times the CI 
contains the true parameter. If I was making everything 
right, for 1000 repetitions, that should be approximately 
950 times. But I am getting 1000 times as a result. What 
wrong with my code?

And another question. The formula used for estimating 95% 
CI in the regress function is b0_hat-Za*SE(b0_hat) where 
Za=1.96 right? But nor this formula, nor the more precise 
Za=1.95996398454002 seems to agree exactly (4 decimals) 
with the result given by bint in the regress function. 
Precision is not much of a problem, all I want to know is 
the correct formula.

And what about confidence intervals when I have weighted 
regression (lscov). The formula there uses a t distribution?

n=200;
b0=20;
b1=3;
b2=4;
lam=3;
for rep=1:1000
e=normrnd(0,10,1,n);
x1=exprnd(lam,1,n)';
x2=exprnd(5,1,n)';
X = [ones(size(x1)) x1 x2]; 
y=b0+b1.*x1+b2.*x2+e';
[b_ols bint]=regress(y,X);

cover1(rep)=(bint(1)<b0<bint(4));
cover2(rep)=(bint(2)<b1<bint(5));
cover3(rep)=(bint(3)<b2<bint(6));
end

cover1=sum(cover1)
cover2=sum(cover2)
cover3=sum(cover3)

7. Confidence interval for normal data

Hi,

I would like to know if it is possible to put subscript indices to compute confidence intervals, for exemple something like this (which doesn't work):

for k=1:10
[MUHAT(k) SIGMAHAT(k) MUCI(k) SIGMACI(k)]=normfit(x);
end
 
where "x" is a vector of data that changes 10 times according to another loop (which I mention mention here for simplicity).

Thanks a lot for your help.
