A comparison of asymptotic and bootstrapping approach in constructing confidence interval of the concentration parameter in von mises distribution

Bootstrap is a resampling procedure for estimating the distributions of statistics based on independent observations. Basically, bootstrapping has been established for the use of parameter estimation of linear data. Thus, the used of bootstrap in confidence interval of the concentration parameter, κ...
