1. In probability theory and statistics, the probability distribution that a sequence of random variables approaches as the number of trials or observations increases to infinity.
The central limit theorem establishes that the asymptotic limiting distribution of the sample mean is normal.
O teorema do limite central estabelece que a distribuição limite assintótica da média amostral é normal.
2. A theoretical distribution used to approximate the behavior of a statistic when the sample size becomes very large.
The asymptotic limiting distribution allows us to perform hypothesis testing without knowing the exact finite-sample distribution.
A distribuição limite assintótica nos permite realizar testes de hipóteses sem conhecer a distribuição exata da amostra finita.
