Everything about Delta method
Method in statistics
In statistics, the delta method is a method of deriving the asymptotic distribution of a random variable. It is applicable when the random variable being considered can be defined as a differentiable function of a random variable which is asymptotically Gaussian. More generally, the delta method applies to Hadamard directionally differentiable functionals of stochastic processes that converge to a limiting process. Wikipedia →
