摘要
In this paper, the Stein-Chen method and the w-function associated with the negative hypergeometric random variable are used to give a result of the Poisson approximation to the negative hypergeometric distribution in terms of the total variation distance. Some numerical examples are presented to illustrate the result obtained.
