Stein's method of exchangeable pairs for the Beta distribution and generalizations [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
We propose a new version of Stein's method of exchangeable pairs, which, given a suitable exchangeable pair $(W,W')$ of real-valued random variables, suggests the approximation of the law of $W$ by a suitable absolutely continuous distribution.

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 ...

Cauchy approximation for sums of independent random variables

open access: yesInternational Journal of Mathematics and Mathematical Sciences, 2003
We use Stein's method to find a bound for Cauchy approximation. The random variables which are considered need to be independent.

A Stein characterisation of the generalized hyperbolic distribution [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The generalized hyperbolic (GH) distributions form a five parameter family of probability distributions that includes many standard distributions as special or limiting cases, such as the generalized inverse Gaussian distribution, Student's $t ...

Ethical care of the other: Edith Stein and Max Scheler's contributions

open access: yesEscola Anna Nery, 2018
Objective: To analyze the empathy of Edith Stein and the sympathy of Max Scheler for an ethical care of the other. Method: A reflexive, philosophical study anchored in the philosopher Edith Stein's thoughts about empathy for the care of the human person,

Recovering Texture with a Denoising-Process-Aware LMMSE Filter

open access: yesSignals, 2021
Image denoising methods generally remove not only noise but also fine-scale textures and thus degrade the subjective image quality. In this paper, we propose a method of recovering the texture component that is lost under a state-of-the-art denoising ...

The Stein-Dirichlet-Malliavin method

open access: yesESAIM: Proceedings and Surveys, 2015
The Stein’s method is a popular method used to derive upper-bounds of distances between probability distributions. It can be viewed, in certain of its formulations, as an avatar of the semi-group or of the smart-path method used ...

Stein meets Malliavin in normal approximation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Stein's method is a method of probability approximation which hinges on the solution of a functional equation. For normal approximation the functional equation is a first order differential equation.

An improvement of a nonuniform bound for unbounded exchangeable pairs

open access: yesJournal of Inequalities and Applications, 2023
In this paper, we obtain a nonuniform Berry–Esseen bound for a normal approximation via the Stein method and the exchangeable-pair coupling technique where the boundedness condition of the difference between the exchangeable pair is not required.

Performance Enhancement of INS and UWB Fusion Positioning Method Based on Two-Level Error Model

open access: yesSensors, 2023
In GNSS-denied environments, especially when losing measurement sensor data, inertial navigation system (INS) accuracy is critical to the precise positioning of vehicles, and an accurate INS error compensation model is the most effective way to improve ...
