Two Moments Suffice for Poisson Approximations: The Chen-Stein Method
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors presented Chen's results in a form that is easy to use and gave a multivariable extension, which gives an upper bound on the total variation distance between a sequence of dependent indicator functions and a Poisson process with the same intensity.

Normal Approximation by Stein's Method
TL;DR: In this paper, Stein's method is used for non-linear statistics and multivariate normal approximations for independent random variables with moderate deviations, and a non-normal approximation for nonlinear statistics.
Journal ArticleDOI
Poisson Approximation and the Chen-Stein Method
TL;DR: The Chen-Stein method of Poisson approximation is a powerful tool for computing an error bound when approximating probabilities using the Poisson distribution as discussed by the authors, in many cases, this bound may be given in terms of first and second moments alone.

Journal ArticleDOI
Exposure stratified case-cohort designs.
TL;DR: A variant of the case-cohort design is proposed for the situation in which a correlate of the exposure (or prognostic factor) of interest is available for all cohort members, and exposure information is to be collected for a case- cohort sample.
