  • Abstract
    We consider the problem of designing detectors using tolerance intervals. Signal detection based on tolerance intervals allows us to force the actual level of significance not to exceed the preset level with a given probability. The results presented in this letter demonstrate the accuracy with which these detectors can control the false-alarm rate when little is known about the noise distribution and only a small sample is available.
