We consider theoretical bootstrap "coupling" techniques for nonparametric robust smoothers and quantile regression, and … verify the bootstrap improvement. To cope with curse of dimensionality, a variant of "coupling" bootstrap techniques are …. Our bootstrap method can be used in many situations like constructing con dence intervals and bands. We demonstrate the …
