The Sample Complexity of Simple Binary Hypothesis Testing
The Sample Complexity of Simple Binary Hypothesis Testing
The sample complexity of simple binary hypothesis testing is the smallest number of i.i.d. samples required to distinguish between two distributions $p$ and $q$ in either: (i) the prior-free setting, with type-I error at most $\alpha$ and type-II error at most $\beta$; or (ii) the Bayesian setting, with Bayes error …
