Abstract
We propose a universal, asymptotically optimum decision rule fur deciding w hether or not an observed sequence generated at the output of an unknown fi nite-state channel corresponds to a given channel-input message. The hypoth esized message is tested against a certain alternative message or several a lternative messages under the Neyman-Pearson criterion.
