On Logarithmically Asymptotically Optimal Hypothesis Testing for Arbitrarily Varying Sources with Side Information

  • Chapter
General Theory of Information Transfer and Combinatorics

Part of the book series: Lecture Notes in Computer Science ((LNTCS,volume 4123))

Abstract

The asymptotic interdependence of the error probabilities exponents (reliabilities) in optimal hypotheses testing is studied for arbitrarily varying sources with state sequence known to the statistician. The case when states are not known to the decision maker was studied by Fu and Shen.
