Abstract: A robust sequential nonparametric method is proposed
for adaptation to background noise parameters for real-time. The
distribution of background noise was modelled like to Huber
contamination mixture. The method is designed to operate as an
adaptation-unit, which is included inside a detection subsystem of an
integrated multichannel monitoring system. The proposed method
guarantees the given size of a nonasymptotic confidence set for noise
parameters. Properties of the suggested method are rigorously
proved. The proposed algorithm has been successfully tested in real
conditions of a functioning C-OTDR monitoring system, which was
designed to monitor railways.
Abstract: This paper introduces an original method for
guaranteed estimation of the accuracy for an ensemble of Lipschitz
classifiers. The solution was obtained as a finite closed set of
alternative hypotheses, which contains an object of classification with
probability of not less than the specified value. Thus, the
classification is represented by a set of hypothetical classes. In this
case, the smaller the cardinality of the discrete set of hypothetical
classes is, the higher is the classification accuracy. Experiments have
shown that if cardinality of the classifiers ensemble is increased then
the cardinality of this set of hypothetical classes is reduced. The
problem of the guaranteed estimation of the accuracy for an ensemble
of Lipschitz classifiers is relevant in multichannel classification of
target events in C-OTDR monitoring systems. Results of suggested
approach practical usage to accuracy control in C-OTDR monitoring
systems are present.
