Moderate deviation principle for plug-in estimators of diversity indices on countable alphabets

Abstract

In the present paper, we consider the moderate deviation principle for the plug-in estimators of a large class of diversity indices on countable alphabets, where the distribution may change with the sample size. Our results cover some of the most commonly used indices, including Tsallis entropy, Re\'nyi entropy and Hill diversity number.
