Chernoff-Type Bounds for the Gaussian Error Function

Chernoff Bounds

If m = 2, i.e., P = (p, 1 − p) and Q = (q, 1 − q), we also write DKL(p‖q). The Kullback-Leibler divergence provides a measure of distance between the distributions P and Q: it represents the expected loss of efficiency if we encode an m-letter alphabet with distribution P with a code that is optimal for distribution Q. We can now state the general form of the Chernoff Bound: Theorem 1.1. Let X1...

Chernoff bounds on pairwise error probabilities of space-time codes

We derive Chernoff bounds on pairwise error probabilities of coherent and noncoherent space-time signaling schemes. First, general Chernoff bound expressions are derived for a correlated Ricean fading channel and correlated additive Gaussian noise. Then, we specialize the obtained results to the cases of space-timeseparable noise, white noise, and uncorrelated fading. We derive approximate Cher...

Improving Chernoff criterion for classification by using the filled function

Linear discriminant analysis is a well-known matrix-based dimensionality reduction method. It is a supervised feature extraction method used in two-class classification problems. However, it is incapable of dealing with data in which classes have unequal covariance matrices. Taking this issue, the Chernoff distance is an appropriate criterion to measure distances between distributions. In the p...

On the Gaussian error function

Many steganographers would agree that, had it not been for the Ethernet, the exploration of model checking might never have occurred. After years of essential research into web browsers, we verify the improvement of redundancy, which embodies the confusing principles of cryptoanalysis. RIBAND, our new application for the deployment of Byzantine fault tolerance, is the solution to all of these o...
