Nearly Optimal Sequential Tests of Composite Hypotheses
A simple class of sequential tests is proposed for testing the one-sided composite hypotheses $H_0: \theta \leq \theta_0$ versus $H_1: \theta \geq \theta_1$ for the natural parameter $\theta$ of an exponential family of distributions under the 0-1 loss and cost $c$ per observation. Setting $\theta_1 = \theta_0$ in these tests …
