A refinement of normal approximation to Poisson binomial
Let X1,X2,…,Xn be independent Bernoulli random variables with P(Xj=1)=1−P(Xj=0)=pj and let Sn:=X1+X2+⋯+Xn. Sn is called a Poisson binomial random variable and it is well known that the distribution of a Poisson binomial random variable can be approximated by the standard normal distribution. In this...
