A Nonuniform Bound for the Approximation of Poisson Binomial by Poisson Distribution
It is well known that Poisson binomial distribution can be approximated by Poisson distribution. In this paper, we give a nonuniform bound of this approximation by using Stein-Chen method.
متن کاملUniform asymptotics of Poisson approximation to the Poisson-binomial distribution
New uniform asymptotic approximations with error bounds are derived for a generalized total variation distance of Poisson approximations to the Poisson-binomial distribution. The method of proof is also applicable to other Poisson approximation problems. MSC 2000 Subject Classifications: Primary 62E17; secondary 60C05.
متن کاملMultivariate Poisson–Binomial approximation using Stein’s method
The paper is concerned with the accuracy in total variation of the approximation of the distribution of a sum of independent Bernoulli distributed random d–vectors by the product distribution with Poisson marginals which has the same mean. The best results, obtained using generating function methods, are those of Roos (1998, 1999). Stein’s method has so far yielded somewhat weaker bounds. We de...
متن کاملThe Cramér-Rao Bound for Poisson Distribution
| The paper studies the Cram er-Rao (CR) bound for data obtained in emission tomography (ET). In ET the distribution of the data is the combined probability of independent Poisson distributed variables, the expectation of each being a linear function c T i of the vector of parameters. We investigate the achievability of the CR bound, in particular on the boundary of the natural domain of the pr...
متن کاملAccurate Inference for the Mean of the Poisson-Exponential Distribution
Although the random sum distribution has been well-studied in probability theory, inference for the mean of such distribution is very limited in the literature. In this paper, two approaches are proposed to obtain inference for the mean of the Poisson-Exponential distribution. Both proposed approaches require the log-likelihood function of the Poisson-Exponential distribution, but the exact for...
