Detecting an Intermittent Change of Unknown Duration

Grigory Sokolov, Valentin S. Spivak, Alexander G. Tartakovsky

Oftentimes in practice, the observed process changes statistical properties at an unknown point in time and the duration of a change is substantially finite, in which case one says…

An Analytic Expression for the Distribution of the Generalized Shiryaev-Roberts Diffusion

Aleksey S. Polunchenko, Grigory Sokolov

We consider the quickest change-point detection problem where the aim is to detect the onset of a pre-specified drift in "live"-monitored standard Brownian motion; the change-point…

On Robustness of the Shiryaev-Roberts Procedure for Quickest Change-Point Detection under Parameter Misspecification in the Post-Change Distribution

Wenyu Du, Aleksey S. Polunchenko, Grigory Sokolov

The gist of the quickest change-point detection problem is to detect the presence of a change in the statistical behavior of a series of sequentially made observations, and do so i…

Second-Order Asymptotic Optimality in Multisensor Sequential Change Detection

Georgios Fellouris, Grigory Sokolov

A generalized multisensor sequential change detection problem is considered, in which a number of (possibly correlated) sensors monitor an environment in real time, the joint distr…

An Exact Formula for the Average Run Length to False Alarm of the Generalized Shiryaev-Roberts Procedure for Change-Point Detection under Exponential Observations

Wenyu Du, Grigory Sokolov, Aleksey S. Polunchenko

We derive analytically an exact closed-form formula for the standard minimax Average Run Length (ARL) to false alarm delivered by the Generalized Shiryaev-Roberts (GSR) change-poin…

Efficient Performance Evaluation of the Generalized Shiryaev--Roberts Detection Procedure in a Multi-Cyclic Setup

Aleksey S. Polunchenko, Grigory Sokolov, Wenyu Du

We propose a numerical method to evaluate the performance of the emerging Generalized Shiryaev--Roberts (GSR) change-point detection procedure in a "minimax-ish" multi-cyclic setup…

Quickest Change-Point Detection: A Bird's Eye View

Aleksey S. Polunchenko, Grigory Sokolov, Wenyu Du

We provide a bird's eye view onto the area of sequential change-point detection. We focus on the discrete-time case with known pre- and post-change data distributions and offer a s…

Optimal Design and Analysis of the Exponentially Weighted Moving Average Chart for Exponential Data

Aleksey S. Polunchenko, Grigory Sokolov, Alexander G. Tartakovsky

We study optimal design of the Exponentially Weighted Moving Average (EWMA) chart by a proper choice of the smoothing factor and the initial value (headstart) of the decision stati…

An Accurate Method for Determining the Pre-Change Run-Length Distribution of the Generalized Shiryaev--Roberts Detection Procedure

Aleksey S. Polunchenko, Grigory Sokolov, Wenyu Du

Change-of-measure is a powerful technique used across statistics, probability and analysis. Particularly known as Wald's likelihood ratio identity, the technique enabled the proof…

Efficient Computer Network Anomaly Detection by Changepoint Detection Methods

Alexander G. Tartakovsky, Aleksey S. Polunchenko, Grigory Sokolov

We consider the problem of efficient on-line anomaly detection in computer network traffic. The problem is approached statistically, as that of sequential (quickest) changepoint de…
