Outline • The change detection problem • Overview of existing results • Lorden’s criterion & the CUSUM stopping time • The Brownian motion model with multiple alternatives • A modified Lorden criterion • Optimality of the CUSUM rule for 1-sided alternatives • Two sided 2-CUSUM test & the HMR • Further optimality issues for 2-sided alternatives & Optimality of Equalizer Rules • Discussion and Open Problems
We are observing sequentially a process with the following characteristics: The change detection problem • Change time : deterministic (but unknown) or random • In control distribution is known • Out of control can be known or unknown Detect the change “as soon as possible” Applications include: systems monitoring, quality control, financial decision making, remote sensing (radar, sonar, seismology), occurrence of industrial accidents, epidemiology etc
The observation process »t becomes available sequentially;This can be expressed through the filtration: For detecting the change we are interested in sequential schemes Any sequential detection scheme can be represented by a stopping time T (the time we stop & declare the change) The stopping time T is adapted to In other words, at every instant t, we perform a test (whether to stop or continue sampling) using only available information up to time t
: the probability measure induced by , when the change takes place at time : the corresponding expectation : all data under nominal (in-control) regime : all data under alternative (out-of-control) regime Optimality Criteria • They are basically a trade-off of two parts: • The first is the detection delay (out-of-control A.R.L.) • The second is the frequency of false alarms (in-control A.R.L.) Overview of Existing Results Possible approaches are Bayesian & Min-Max
is random and exponentially distributed The Shiryaev test consists of computing the statistics and stop when • is optimum (Shiryaev 1978): • In discrete time: when are i.i.d. before and after the change • In continuous time: when is a Brownian Motion with constant drift before and after the change Bayesian Approach (Shiryaev):
is deterministic and unknown subject to Optimality results exist only for discrete time when are i.i.d before and after the change. Specifically if we define the statistics where , the common pdf of the data before and after the change then (Yakir 1997) the stopping time is optimum Min-Max Approach (Shiryayev-Roberts-Pollak)
subject to Remark: In seeking solutions need only Lorden’s Criterion An alternative min-max approach: (Lorden 1971) And solve the min-max problem The test closely related to Lorden’s criterion and being the most popular one used in practice is the Cumulative Sum (CUSUM) test
The CUSUM statistic process • Optimality results • Discrete time: when are i.i.d. before and after the change (Moustakides 1986, Ritov 1990) • Continuous time: when is a Brownian Motion with constant drift before and after the change (Shiryayev 1996, Beibel 1996) Define the CUSUM statistics as follows: ; The CUSUM stopping time (Page 1954): where the threshold º is selected so that

The Brownian motion model with one alternative We observe sequentially the process with the following dynamics: where the drift ¹ is known.
We observe sequentially the process with the following dynamics: where the are known Remark:We are not interested in identifying which of the occurs, just in detecting the change time . Due to the symmetry of the BM, it suffices to consider the following cases: Case 1: Case 2 (Symmetric): Case 3 (Asymmetric): The Brownian motion model with two/multiple alternatives
We want to solve the min-max problem with the following optimality criterion: subject to A modified Lorden Criterion One possible way to extend Lorden’s criterion, to include multiple changes, is in the following way: Remark:We are interested solely in the detection problem. No special care is taken for estimating the type of change (i.e. identifying i).
Key point in the proof is the following inequality: Optimality Issues Case 1: We can show that the 1-sided CUSUM test, run for is optimal (in a sense detecting is the worst case scenario.

And the corresponding CUSUM stopping times: Then the 2-sided CUSUM stopping time is: Notice The classical 2-CUSUM rule

The difference of the two detection delays tends to the constant: . This proves asymptotic optimality.
