Using dye intensity measurements at synaptic terminals to examine neurotransmitter release leads to the problem of estimating an expectation when, instead of observing independent random variables ...

This paper studies the approximation of extreme quantiles of random sums of heavy-tailed random variables, or, more specifically, subexponential random variables. A key application of this ...
