Stein's Heuristic

Probability Theory · probability.tex
Let $F$ be a random variable such that \[ \mathbb{E}(f'(F)-Ff(f)) \approx 0 \] for a large class of test functions $f$ we want to say that this is close to the standard Gaussian. \[ L(F) \approx N(0,1) \] where $L$ denotes the Law of a random variable (cdf).
