On the real accuracy of approximation in the central limit theorem
V. V. Senatov Moscow State University, Moscow, Russia
Abstract:
We consider various approximations in the central limit theorem for distributions of sums of independent random variables. We study how many summands in the normalized sums guarantee the precision $10^{-3}$ for these approximations. It turns out that for the same distribution but different approximations this number varies from hundreds of thousands to a few tens.
Keywords:
central limit theorem, accuracy of approximation, asymptotic expansions.
