Abstract:
Generalized likelihood ratio test (GLRT) is a classic approach for composite hypothesis testing. In this talk, I will discuss three related problems. First, I will present a large deviation result of a GLRT for testing non-overlapping parametric families. Second, I will introduce the GLRT in sequential analysis and discuss its asymptotic properties. Third, I will present a level-triggered GLRT under a decentralized sequential design.In theory, the proposed procedures are shown to be asymptotically optimal. These procedures can be applied to various disciplines including education, engineering, and e-commerce.
