  2. Constant false alarm rate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Constant_false_alarm_rate

    However, in most fielded systems, unwanted clutter and interference sources mean that the noise level changes both spatially and temporally. In this case, a changing threshold can be used, where the threshold level is raised and lowered to maintain a constant probability of false alarm. This is known as constant false alarm rate (CFAR) detection.

  3. False discovery rate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/False_discovery_rate

    The false discovery rate (FDR) is then simply the following: [1] = = [], where [] is the expected value of . The goal is to keep FDR below a given threshold q . To avoid division by zero , Q {\displaystyle Q} is defined to be 0 when R = 0 {\displaystyle R=0} .

  4. Detection error tradeoff - Wikipedia

    The normal deviate mapping (or normal quantile function, or inverse normal cumulative distribution) is given by the probit function, so that the horizontal axis is x = probit(P fa) and the vertical is y = probit(P fr), where P fa and P fr are the false-accept and false-reject rates.

  5. Family-wise error rate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Family-wise_error_rate

    V is the number of false positives (Type I error) (also called "false discoveries") S is the number of true positives (also called "true discoveries") T is the number of false negatives (Type II error) U is the number of true negatives = + is the number of rejected null hypotheses (also called "discoveries", either true or false)

  6. Canny edge detector - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Canny_edge_detector

    The Canny edge detector is an edge detection operator that uses a multi-stage algorithm to detect a wide range of edges in images. It was developed by John F. Canny in 1986. Canny also produced a computational theory of edge detection explaining why the technique works.

  7. False positives and false negatives - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/False_positives_and_false...

    The false positive rate (FPR) is the proportion of all negatives that still yield positive test outcomes, i.e., the conditional probability of a positive test result given an event that was not present. The false positive rate is equal to the significance level. The specificity of the test is equal to 1 minus the false positive rate.

  8. Cyclic redundancy check - Wikipedia

    Secondly, unlike cryptographic hash functions, CRC is an easily reversible function, which makes it unsuitable for use in digital signatures. [7] Thirdly, CRC satisfies a relation similar to that of a linear function (or more accurately, an affine function): [8]

  9. Maximum likelihood sequence estimation - Wikipedia

    where p(r | x) denotes the conditional joint probability density function of the observed series {r(t)} given that the underlying series has the values {x(t)}. In contrast, the related method of maximum a posteriori estimation is formally the application of the maximum a posteriori (MAP) estimation approach.
