Abstract For a nonhomogeneous polynomial scheme, conditions are found under which the Pearson statistic distributions converge to the distribution of nonnegative quadratic form of independent random variables with the standard normal distribution.

LetX1,X2,…,Xnbe independent Bernoulli random variables withP(Xj=1)=1−P(Xj=0)=pjand letSn:=X1+X2+⋯+Xn.Snis 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 paper, we use Taylor's formula to improve the approximation by adding some correction terms. Our result is better than before and is of order1/nin the casep1=p2=⋯=pn.

Nonlinear filtering is of great significance in industries. In this work, we develop a new linear regression Kalman filter for discrete nonlinear filtering problems. Under the framework of linear regression Kalman filter, the key step is minimizing the Kullback–Leibler divergence between standard normal distribution and its Dirac mixture approximation formed by symmetric samples so that we can obtain a set of samples which can capture the information of reference density. The samples representing the conditional densities evolve in a deterministic way, and therefore we need less samples compared with particle filter, as there is less variance in our method. The numerical results show that the new algorithm is more efficient compared with the widely used extended Kalman filter, unscented Kalman filter and particle filter.
