Stein's Method and Random Variable Approximations Publication Trend The graph below shows the total number of publications each year in Stein's Method and Random Variable Approximations.

In this article, we consider diffusion approximations for a general class of stochastic recursions. Such recursions arise as models for population growth, genetics, financial securities, ...

In some ways, the fundamental thing to know about differential calculus is that the tangent line to the graph of a function is a decent approximation to the function itself, provided you don't ...
