Bounded Convex

Let X1, X2, · ··, Xn be independent random variables such that ai ≦ Xi ≦ bi, i = 1,2,…n. A class of upper bounds on the probability P(S−ES ≧ nδ) is derived where S = Σf(Xi), δ > 0 and f is a continuous convex function. Conditions for the exponential convergence of the bounds are discussed.
