INEQUALITIES FOR CONDITIONED NORMAL APPROXIMATIONS

open access: yesDemonstratio Mathematica, 1988
Let \(\{X_ n,n\leq 1\}\) be a sequence of independent random variables defined on a probability space (\(\Omega\),\({\mathcal A},P)\).

Normal Approximation in Large Network Models

open access: yes, 2021
We develop a methodology for proving central limit theorems in network models with strategic interactions and homophilous agents. Since data often consists of observations on a single large network, we consider an asymptotic framework in which the ...

A Generalization of the Hypergeometric Distribution

open access: yesSultan Qaboos University Journal for Science, 2000
In this paper we introduce a modification of the hypergeometric distribution that caters for the case when the sampling scheme favours the inclusion of units of one of the two types involved, as opposed to the hypergeometric distribution under which all ...

Relaxation of monotone coupling conditions: Poisson approximation and beyond [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
It is well-known that assumptions of monotonicity in size-bias couplings may be used to prove simple, yet powerful, Poisson approximation results. Here we show how these assumptions may be relaxed, establishing explicit Poisson approximation bounds ...

Demixing in a single-peak distributed polydisperse mixture of hard spheres [PDF]

open access: yes, 1998
An analytic derivation of the spinodal of a polydisperse mixture is presented. It holds for fluids whose excess free energy can be accurately described by a function of a few moments of the size distribution.

Dietary Protein Intake and Peritoneal Protein Losses in Peritoneal Dialysis Patients

open access: yesTherapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients lose protein in their waste dialysate, potentially increasing their risk for malnutrition. We wished to determine whether there was any association between losses and dietary protein intake (DPI). Methods DPI was assessed from 24‐h dietary recall using Nutrics software.

A refinement of normal approximation to Poisson binomial

open access: yesInternational Journal of Mathematics and Mathematical Sciences, 2005
Let X1,X2,…,Xn be independent Bernoulli random variables with P(Xj=1)=1−P(Xj=0)=pj and let Sn:=X1+X2+⋯+Xn. Sn is called a Poisson binomial random variable and it is well known that the distribution of a Poisson binomial random variable can be ...

A Novel Method of Offset Approximation along the Normal Direction with High Precision

open access: yesMathematical and Computational Applications, 2017
A new algorithm is proposed for polynomial or rational approximation of the planar offset curve. The best rational Chebyshev approximation could be regarded as a kind of geometric approximation along the fixed direction.

Extended Newton-type Method for Nonsmooth Generalized Equation under n,α-point-based Approximation

open access: yesInternational Journal of Mathematics and Mathematical Sciences, 2022
Let X and Y be Banach spaces and Ω⊆X. Let f:Ω⟶Y be a single valued function which is nonsmooth. Suppose that F:X⇉2Y is a set-valued mapping which has closed graph.

Translated Poisson approximation using exchangeable pair couplings [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
It is shown that the method of exchangeable pairs introduced by Stein [Approximate Computation of Expectations (1986) IMS, Hayward, CA] for normal approximation can effectively be used for translated Poisson approximation.
