Noise enhanced hypothesis-testing according to restricted Neyman-Pearson criterion
Noise enhanced hypothesis-testing is studied according to the restricted Neyman-Pearson (NP) criterion. First, a problem formulation is presented for obtaining the optimal probability distribution of additive noise in the restricted NP framework. Then, sufficient conditions for improvability and nonimprovability are derived in order to specify if additive noise can or cannot improve detection p...
متن کاملGeneral Testing Fisher , Neyman , Pearson , and Bayes
One of the famous controversies in statistics is the dispute between Fisher and Neyman-Pearson about the proper way to conduct a test. Hubbard and Bayarri (2003) gave an excellent account of the issues involved in the controversy. Another famous controversy is between Fisher and almost all Bayesians. Fisher (1956) discussed one side of these controversies. Berger’s Fisher lecture attempted to c...
متن کاملOn the Restricted Neyman-Pearson Approach for Composite Hypothesis-Testing in Presence of Prior Distribution Uncertainty
The restricted Neyman-Pearson (NP) approach is studied for composite hypothesis-testing problems in the presence of uncertainty in the prior probability distribution under the alternative hypothesis. A restricted NP decision rule aims to maximize the average detection probability under the constraints on the worst-case detection and false-alarm probabilities, and adjusts the constraint on the w...
متن کاملPragmatic Encroachment and Epistemic Value
Does knowledge matter ? There are actually at least two questions behind this broad one. The first is whether the value of knowledge is independent from other epistemic values, such as the value of truth, or the value of having true beliefs. The second is whether knowledge, as an epistemic value is independent from other values, such as the good or freedom, which are practical or ethical values...
