Effects of parameter estimation on prediction densities: a bootstrap approach
Article Abstract:
Using the bootstrap approach, the impact of parameter estimation on prediction densities is studied. The average coverage and length of intervals based on Least Absolute Deviations were found to be closer to nominal values than those based on Ordinary Least Squares, when error distribution was not Gaussian.
