Some Applications of the Resampling Methods in Computational Physics

Sotiraq Marko , Lorenc Ekonomi

Abstract

The statistical methods are being very important for estimating the unknown parameters in computational physics. Between them we can mention the resampling methods: the jackknife and bootstrap estimate. In our work we have done their ideas and have shown the results of some applications in physics problems of parameter estimation.

Keywords

Jackknife, bootstrap, bias, computational physics, Binder ratio, Lorentzian.
