Abstract

We establish a Berry--Esseen bound for general multivariate nonlinear statistics by developing a new multivariate-type randomized concentration inequality. The bound is the best possible for many known statistics. As applications, Berry--Esseen bounds for M-estimators and averaged stochastic gradient descent algorithms are obtained.
