Stein's Method and Multinomial Approximation

open access: yesThe Annals of Applied Probability, 1992
Stein's method [see \textit{C. Stein}, Proc. 6th Berkeley Sympos. Math. Statist. Probab., Univ. Calif. 1970, 2, 583-602 (1972; Zbl 0278.60026)] is developed in the setting of approximation by a multinomial distribution \(MN(N;p_ 1,\dots,p_ M)\) for an arbitrary choice of \(M\) and \(p_ 1,\dots,p_ M\).

Minimal spanning trees and Stein’s method [PDF]

open access: yesThe Annals of Applied Probability, 2017
Kesten and Lee [36] proved that the total length of a minimal spanning tree on certain random point configurations in $\mathbb{R}^d$ satisfies a central limit theorem. They also raised the question: how to make these results quantitative? However, techniques employed to tackle the same problem for other functionals studied in geometric probability do ...

Stein's Method and Characters of Compact Lie Groups

open access: yes, 2008
Stein's method is used to study the trace of a random element from a compact Lie group or symmetric space. Central limit theorems are proved using very little information: character values on a single element and the decomposition of the square of the ...

An improved bound for negative binomial approximation with -functions

open access: yesAKCE International Journal of Graphs and Combinatorics, 2017
In this article, we use Stein’s method together with -functions to give an improved bound for the total variation distance between the distribution of a non-negative integer-valued random variable and the negative binomial distribution with parameters ...

The law of the iterated logarithm for LNQD sequences

open access: yesJournal of Inequalities and Applications, 2018
Let { ξ i , i ∈ Z } $\{\xi_{i},i\in{\mathbb{Z}}\}$ be a stationary LNQD sequence of random variables with zero means and finite variance. In this paper, by the Kolmogorov type maximal inequality and Stein’s method, we establish the result of the law of ...

Stein's method, Palm theory and Poisson process approximation

open access: yes, 2004
The framework of Stein's method for Poisson process approximation is presented from the point of view of Palm theory, which is used to construct Stein identities and define local dependence.

Orthogonal Polynomials in Stein's Method

open access: yesJournal of Mathematical Analysis and Applications, 2001
The paper systematically develops a relationship between the classical families of orthogonal polynomials and Stein's method as applied to the distributions in the Pearson and Ord families, that was also discussed by \textit{P. Diaconis} and \textit{S. Zabell} [Stat. Sci. 6, No. 3, 284-302 (1991)].

Multiple Parameters Determination for Image and Video Reconstruction Using Genetic Algorithm and Generalized Stein’s Unbiased Risk Estimation

open access: yesIEEE Access, 2019
This paper proposes a heuristic multi-parameter optimization method for image and video reconstruction. The method is embedded in an evolutionary computation framework in which a set of parameters are encoded into chromosomes of an individual, and a ...
