APPROXIMATION RESULTS FOR THE SUMS OF INDEPENDENT RANDOM VARIABLES

* In this article, we consider Poisson and Poisson convoluted geometric approximation to the sums of n independent random variables under moment conditions. We use Stein's method to derive the approximation results in total variation distance. The error bounds obtained are either comparable to...
