Journal ArticleDOI
Total variation asymptotics for sums of independent integer random variables
TL;DR: In this paper, an asymptotic expansion of the signed compound Poisson approximation was proposed, which is based on Stein's method for signed compound poisson approximation with uniform error.
Journal ArticleDOI
An Expansion in the Exponent for Compound Binomial Approximations
Vydas Čekanavičius,Bero Roos +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, a new asymptotic expansion in the exponent for the compound binomial approximation of the generalized Poisson binomial distribution is introduced, and the dependence of its accuracy on the symmetry and shifting of distributions is investigated.
Journal ArticleDOI
On Negative Binomial Approximation
TL;DR: In this paper, negative binomial approximation to sums of independent Z +$-valued random variables using Stein's method is employed to obtain the error bounds Convolution of negative Binomial and Poisson distribution is used as a three-parametric approximation.
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.
