Since it is rather impractical to perform the ideal test that fully reflects such a change of a sample statistic, we used a practical detection method that optimally approximates the ideal log-likelihood ratio with respect to its statistical mean. In the LRT scenario, we found that there exists a nonnegligible performance gap between the ideal and practical tests, and the related experiments and theoretical analyses are also explored. Furthermore, we propose how to design a sequential detector in a robust manner to guarantee predefined false-alarm and missed-detection constraints for both the ideal and practical SPRTs.Read More
