The area under the ROC curve (AUC) has been advocated as an evaluation criterion for the bipartite ranking problem. We study large deviation properties of the AUC; in particular, ...
— Convexity/concavity properties of symbol error rates (SER) of the maximum likelihood detector operating in the AWGN channel (non-fading and fading) are studied. Generic conditi...
When a phenomenon is described by a parametric model and multiple datasets are available, a key problem in statistics is to discover which datasets are characterized by the same p...
We consider the steady state output analysis problem for a process that satisfies a functional central limit theorem. We construct asymptotically valid confidence intervals for th...
Understanding the variation of recombination rates across a given genome is crucial for disease gene mapping and for detecting signatures of selection, to name just a couple of app...
