Normal approximation for random sums
In this paper, we adapt the very effective Berry–Esseen theorems of Chen and Shao (2004), which apply to sums of locally dependent random variables, for use with randomly indexed sums. Our particular interest is in random variables resulting from integrating a random field with respect to a point process. We illustrate the use of our theorems in three examples; in a rather general model of the ...
متن کاملStrong Laws for Weighted Sums of Negative Dependent Random Variables
In this paper, we discuss strong laws for weighted sums of pairwise negatively dependent random variables. The results on i.i.d case of Soo Hak Sung [9] are generalized and extended.
متن کاملOn the Complete Convergence ofWeighted Sums for Dependent Random Variables
We study the limiting behavior of weighted sums for negatively associated (NA) random variables. We extend results in Wu (1999) and a theorem in Chow and Lai (1973) for NA random variables.
متن کاملPoisson Approximation for Sums of Dependent Bernoulli Random Variables
In this paper, we use the Stein-Chen method to determine a non-uniform bound for approximating the distribution of sums of dependent Bernoulli random variables by Poisson distribution. We give two formulas of non-uniform bounds and their applications.
متن کاملCauchy Approximation for Sums of Independent Random Variables
We use Stein's method to find a bound for Cauchy approximation. The random variables which are considered need to be independent.
