Journal ArticleDOI
On the number of successes in dependent trials
TL;DR: In this paper, a new approach to the study of the distributions of sums of n Bernoulli variables by conditional distributions is considered, which leads to a characterization of binomial distribution, and provides a simple approach to study of generalized binomial distributions.
Journal ArticleDOI
On Stein operators for discrete approximations
TL;DR: In this article, a new method based on probability generating functions is used to obtain multiple Stein operators for various random variables closely related to Poisson, binomial and negative binomial distributions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Poisson and compound poisson approximations for random sums of random variables
TL;DR: Upper bounds for the total variation distance, d, are derived between the distributions of two random sums of non-negative integer-valued random variables and these bounds are generally better than the known results on Poisson and compound Poisson approximations.
Journal ArticleDOI
A note on the estimation op the mean op the selected gamma population
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used the (u,V) -method of Bobbins (1988) to obtain the uniformly minimum variance unbiased estimator (UMVUE) of M, the mean of the selected gamma population and showed that the estimator dominates the natural estimator T -X(1) for squared error loss.
Posted ContentDOI
Average worth and simultaneous estimation of the selected subset
TL;DR: In this article, a subset of populations is selected from the given k gamma G(θ i,p ) (i = 1,2,...,k)populations, using Gupta's rule (1963, Ann. Inst. Math., 14, 199-216).
