Jackknife resampling

In statistics, the jackknife (jackknife cross-validation) is a cross-validation technique and, therefore, a form of resampling.It is especially useful for bias and variance estimation. The jackknife pre-dates other common resampling methods such as the bootstrap. Given a sample of size , a jackknife estimator can be built by aggregating the parameter estimates from each subsample of size obtained by omitting one observation. The jackknife technique was developed by Maurice Quenouille (1924–1973) from 1949 and refined in 1956. John Tukey expanded on the technique in 1958 and proposed the name "jackknife" because, like a physical jack-knife (a compact folding knife), it is a rough-and-ready tool that can improvise a solution for a variety of problems even though specific problems may be more efficiently solved with a purpose-designed tool. The jackknife is a linear approximation of the bootstrap. (Wikipedia).

How do we make and compare phylogenetic trees

This video talks about the procedures we use to reconstruct (estimate) phylogenetic trees from data that we have available. The criteria of parsimony, maximum likelihood, and Bayesian probabilities are contrasted. Lastly, the using of bootstrapping to indicate degrees of confidence in tree

Approximate cross validation for large data and high dimensions - Tamara Broderick, MIT

The error or variability of statistical and machine learning algorithms is often assessed by repeatedly re-fitting a model with different weighted versions of the observed data. The ubiquitous tools of cross-validation (CV) and the bootstrap are examples of this technique. These methods a
