Approximation Results for Sums of Independent Random Variables
In this article, we consider Poisson and Poisson convoluted geometric approximation to the sums of n independent random variables under moment conditions. We use Stein’s method to derive the approximation results in total variation distance.

A non-uniform bound on binomial approximation to the beta binomial cumulative distribution function [PDF]
This paper uses Stein’s method and the characterization of beta binomial random variable to determine a non-uniform bound for the distance between the beta binomial cumulative distribution function with parameters n N, 0 and 0 and the ...

Stein's method of exchangeable pairs in multivariate functional approximations [PDF]
In this paper we develop a framework for multivariate functional approximation by a suitable Gaussian process via an exchangeable pairs coupling that satisfies a suitable approximate linear regression property, thereby building on work by Barbour (1990 ...

First-order covariance inequalities via Stein’s method [PDF]
We propose probabilistic representations for inverse Stein operators (i.e. solutions to Stein equations) under general conditions; in particular we deduce new simple expressions for the Stein kernel.

Interferometric SAR Phase Filtering With SURE-Based Non-Local Method
As the phase of the interferometric synthetic aperture radar (InSAR) contains abundant information for many earth observation activities, the interferometric phase denoising is an important step before InSAR processing and application because of its ...

On Stein’s method for multivariate self-decomposable laws [PDF]
This work explores and develops elements of Stein's method of approximation, in the infinitely divisible setting, and its connections to functional analysis. It is mainly concerned with multivariate self-decomposable laws without finite first moment and,

Stein’s method and Narayana numbers [PDF]
Narayana numbers appear in many places in combinatorics and probability, and it is known that they are asymptotically normal. Using Stein's method of exchangeable pairs, we provide an error of approximation in total variation to a symmetric binomial distribution of order~$n^{-1}$, which also implies a Kolmogorov bound of order~$n^{-1/2}$ for the normal

The article takes into account the way in which Gertrude Stein’s literary works have been interpreted by critics over the years. Following the writer’s own cue, scholars – starting with Stein’s long-time friend and admirer, Mable Dodge – have been ...

Malliavin–Stein method: a survey of some recent developments
Initiated around the year 2007, the Malliavin–Stein approach to probabilistic approximations combines Stein’s method with infinite-dimensional integration by parts formulae based on the use of Malliavin-type operators. In the last decade, Malliavin–Stein
