After recalling versions of the Chernoff method, we move to concentration inequalities for predictable processes. We especially focus on bounds that enable to handle the sum of real-valued random variables, where the number of summands is itself a random stopping time, and target fully explicit and empirical bounds. We then discuss some important other tools, such as the Laplace method and the transportation lemma.Show less >
