In many scientific problems, the quantity of interest is a function of parameters that index the model, and confidence intervals are constructed by applying the delta method. However, when the function of interest has complicated derivatives, this standard approach is unattractive and...

This paper concerns the rate of convergence in the central limit theorem for certain local dependence structures. The main goal of the paper is to obtain estimates of the rate in the multidimensional case. Certain one-dimensional results are also improved by using some more flexible...
