Stein's method: History & Standards

Stein's method is a general method in probability theory to obtain bounds on the distance between two probability distributions with respect to a probability metric. It was introduced by Charles Stein, who first published it in 1972, to obtain a bound between the distribution of a sum of m {\displaystyle m} -dependent sequence of random variables and a…
