Abstract

In Stein’s method, the exchangeable pair approach is commonly used to estimate the approximation errors in normal approximation. In this paper, we establish a Cramér-type moderate deviation theorem of normal approximation for unbounded exchangeable pairs. As applications, Cramér-type moderate deviation theorems for the sums of local statistics and general Curie–Weiss model are obtained.
