Let Θ be a Bernoulli random variable that indicates which one of
two hypotheses is true, and let P(Θ=1)=p.
Under the hypothesis Θ=0, the random variable X has a
normal distribution with mean 0, and variance 1. Under the
alternative hypothesis Θ=1, X has a normal distribution
with mean 2 and variance 1.
Suppose for this part of the problem that p=2/3. The MAP
rule can choose in favor of the hypothesis Θ=1 if and only if
x≥c1. Find the value of c1.
For this part, assume again that p=2/3. Find the conditional probability of error for the MAP decision rule, given that the hypothesis Θ=0 is true. P(error|Θ=0)=
Find the overall (unconditional) probability of error associated with the MAP rule for p=1/2.
a) Observe that if is the rejection region of , then
Therefore
b) The probability of error given that is
c) Now the map rule for p = 1/2 would be (from the previous calculation)
Therefore the unconditional probability of error is
