From sequential analysis to optimal stopping — revisited Hans Rudolf Lerche Universität Freiburg, Germany |

Abstract: The solution of the problem of optimality of Wald's sequential probability ratio test was the starting point of the theory of optimal stopping. We describe a connection between sequential testing, sequential change-point detection and optimal stopping, emphazising a structure of Bayes risks, which allows to find optimal stopping times in a simple way. We show that these facts lead also to a new approach to treat many optimal stopping problems. Language: English |
