Abstract:
In questo lavoro viene introdotto il metodo Bootstrap, sviluppato a partire dal 1979 da Bradley Efron. Il Bootstrap è una tecnica statistica di ricampionamento basata su calcoli informatici, e quindi definita anche computer-intensive. In particolare vengono analizzati i vantaggi e gli svantaggi di tale metodo tramite esempi con set di dati reali implementati tramite il software statistico R. Tali analisi vertono su due tra i principali utilizzi del Bootstrap, la stima puntuale e la costruzione di intervalli di confidenza, basati entrambi sulla possibilità di approssimare la distribuzione campi

Abstract:
La statistica è un ramo della matematica che studia i metodi per raccogliere, organizzare e analizzare un insieme di dati numerici, la cui variazione è influenzata da cause diverse, con lo scopo sia di descrivere le caratteristiche del fenomeno a cui i dati si riferiscono, sia di dedurre, ove possibile, le leggi generali che lo regolano. La statistica si suddivide in statistica descrittiva o deduttiva e in statistica induttiva o inferenza statistica.

Statistical methods based on nonparametric and distribution-free procedures require the use of order statistics. Order statistics are also used in many parametric estimation and testing problems. With the introduction of modern high speed computers, order statistics have gained more importance in recent years in statistical inference - the main reason being that ranking a large number of observations manually was difficult and time consuming in the past, which is no longer the case at present because of the availability of high speed computers.

Another pressing question among users of statistical methods is: how can spurious relationships be distinguished from genuine ones? Underlying both of these issues is the concept of evidence.

Regression analysis constitutes a large portion of the statistical repertoire in applications. In case where such analysis is used for exploratory purposes with no previous knowledge of the structure one would not wish to impose any constraints on the problem.

An important example of this occurs when the experimenter has the strong belief that the regression function changes monotonically in some or all of the predictor variables in a region

Abstract:
In causal inference, a central aim of covariate selection is to provide a subset of covariates, that is sufficient for confounding adjustment. One approach for this is to construct a subset of covariates associated with the outcome. This is sometimes referred to as the outcome approach, which is the subject for this thesis. Apart from confounding, there may exist effect modification. This occurs when a treatment has different effect on the outcome, among different subgroups, defined by effect modifiers. We describe how the outcome approach implemented by regression models, can be used for esti

Abstract:
The main goal of population genetics is to understand the factors that affect genetic variation within a species. Mathematical models are used to predict the effects on genetic variation of processes such as mutation, recombination, selection, migration and population size changes, but analytical results are difficult to obtain when these processes interact and when equilibrium conditions are not met. In these situations, common in real biological systems especially when recent human activities (e.g., stocking, urbanization, overhunting) perturb natural populations, computer simulations can be
