24 Nov 2004 | Journal: | Probability Surveys 2005, Vol. 2, 64-106 DOI: 10.1214/154957805100000096 | Subject: | Probability | math.PR | Abstract: | This is a survey paper on Poisson approximation using Stein’s method of exchangeable pairs. We illustrate using Poisson-binomial trials and many variations on three classical problems of combinatorial probability: the matching problem, the coupon collector’s problem, and the birthday problem. While many details are new, the results are closely related to a body of work developed by Andrew Barbour, Louis Chen, Richard Arratia, Lou Gordon, Larry Goldstein, and their collaborators. Some comparison with these other approaches is offered. | Source: | arXiv, math.PR/0411525 | Services: | Forum | Review | PDF | Favorites |
