This paper deals with the comparison of tail probabilities for sums of independent bounded random variables and those fbr sums of Bernoulli random variables. As a consequence, we obtain a new sufficient criterion for the strong law of large numbers for a certain class of sequences of independent ran

We develop new discrete distributions that describe the behavior of a sum of dependent Bernoulli random variables. These distributions are motivated by the manner in which multiple individuals with a lung disease appear to cluster within the same family. General results for these models include recu
