The Gram-Charlier series in an infinite series expansion for a probability density function (pdf) in which terms of the series are Hermite polynomials. There are several Gram-Charlier series - the best known is Type A. The Gram-Charlier series, Type A (GCA) exists for both univariate and multivariate random variables.
