Approximate Maximum Likelihood Ratios for Sequential Code Acquisition
In this paper, we consider the noncoherent code acquisition problem using sequential schemes. Since code acquisition schemes using the maximum likelihood estimate usually require a high level of computational complexity, simplified schemes are proposed and analyzed based on approximations. The performance of the simplified and original code acquisition schemes are compared in additive white Gau...
متن کاملNoncoherent sequential code acquisition based on simplified maximum likelihood ratios
In this paper, we consider the noncoherent code acquisition problem using sequential schemes. To alleviate the computational complexity of the maximum likelihood method, simplified schemes are proposed and analyzed for the truncated sequential probability ratio test. The performance of the simplified and original schemes are compared in additive white Gaussian noise and slowly varying fading ch...
متن کاملThe trouble with likelihood ratios.
ity scale for clinicians is symmetrically skewed in both directions. In primary care, elective surgery, and oncology, clinicians work at the extremes of the probability scale. The time has come to apply the Feynman-Tufte principle to clinical logic, to offer a visual representation of Bayesian logic. Earlier attempts with natural logarithmics do not allow a simple graphic. We teach a scale of l...
متن کاملInferences for Likelihood Ratios
Likelihood ratios are extensively used to evaluate the performances of diagnostic tests and to update prior odds of disease to posttest odds. Since few tests are truly 100% accurate, including many used as “gold standards,” it is important to be able to estimate likelihood ratios in cases where no such standard is available. In this paper, methods to calculate point and interval estimates for l...
متن کاملPrioritizing rare variants with conditional likelihood ratios.
BACKGROUND Prioritizing individual rare variants within associated genes or regions often consists of an ad hoc combination of statistical and biological considerations. From the statistical perspective, rare variants are often ranked using Fisher's exact p values, which can lead to different rankings of the same set of variants depending on whether 1- or 2-sided p values are used. RESULTS We...
