EE5112: Detection Theory

Problem Set 1

1. (Poor II.F.1) Find the minimum bayes risk V (π0 ) for the binary channel of example II.B.1
(discussed in class), where
(
λj , y 6= j
pj (y) = .
(1 − λj ), y = j

Assume λ0 , λ1 < 21 , C11 < C01 & C00 < C10 . Sketch V (π0 ) versus π0 . If λ0 = λ1 , sketch
V (π0 ) versus π0 .
2. (Poor II.F.2 (a)) Suppose Y is a random variable that, under hypothesis H0 , has pdf
(

p0 (y) = 3 (y + 1), 0 ≤ y < 1
0, otherwise
and under hypothesis H1 , has pdf
(
1, 0 ≤ y < 1
p1 (y) =
0, otherwise
Find the Bayes rule and minimum Bayes risk for testing H0 versus H1 with uniform costs
and equal priors.
3. (Poor II.F.3 (a)) Repeat problem 2 for the situation in which pj is given instead by
j + 1 −(j+1)|y|
pj (y) = e , y ∈ R, j = 0,1

4. (Poor II.F.4 (a)) Repeat problem 2 for the situation in which p0 and p1 are given instead
by
