Uniformly asymptotic normality of sample quantiles estimator for linearly negative quadrant dependent samples See

In the present article, by utilizing some inequalities for linearly negative quadrant dependent random variables, we discuss the uniformly asymptotic normality of sample quantiles for linearly negative quadrant dependent samples under mild conditions. The rate of uniform asymptotic normality is p...
