- Description
- Statistical bootstrapping has been used in different fields over the years since it was introduced as a technique that one can use to simulate data. In this study, parametric and nonparametric bootstrapping techniques were used to create samples of different compositions from the baseline data. The bootstrap distribution of a point estimator of a population parameter has been used in the past to produce a bootstrapped confidence interval (CI) for the parameter’s true value, if the parameter is written as a function of the population’s distribution. Population parameters are estimated with many point estimators. The study used mean as the population parameter of interest from which bootstrap samples were created. This research was more interested in the CI side of bootstrapping and it is this aspect that this paper focused on. This is the case because the study wanted to offer a certain degree of assurance and reliability of IBR data to users who may not have access to a larger ’lens’ of a network telescope to allow them to monitor security threats in their network. The primary interest in the dataset were source and destination IP (DSTIP) addresses, thus the study selected different size pools of DSTIP addresses to simulate bootstrap samples.
