  2. Detection error tradeoff - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Detection_error_tradeoff

    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.

  3. Constant false alarm rate - Wikipedia

    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.

  4. Receiver operating characteristic - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Receiver_operating...

    The true-positive rate is also known as sensitivity or probability of detection. [1] The false-positive rate is also known as the probability of false alarm [1] and equals (1 − specificity). The ROC is also known as a relative operating characteristic curve, because it is a comparison of two operating characteristics (TPR and FPR) as the ...

    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} .

  6. CUSUM - Wikipedia

    When the quality of the output is satisfactory the A.R.L. is a measure of the expense incurred by the scheme when it gives false alarms, i.e., Type I errors (Neyman & Pearson, 1936 [4]). On the other hand, for constant poor quality the A.R.L. measures the delay and thus the amount of scrap produced before the rectifying action is taken, i.e ...

  7. Majority function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Majority_function

    In Boolean logic, the majority function (also called the median operator) is the Boolean function that evaluates to false when half or more arguments are false and true otherwise, i.e. the value of the function equals the value of the majority of the inputs.

  8. 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.

    Thus, to match the false positive rates typically achieved by other detectors, each classifier can get away with having surprisingly poor performance. For example, for a 32-stage cascade to achieve a false positive rate of 10 −6, each classifier need only achieve a false positive rate of about 65%. At the same time, however, each classifier ...
