Certain results concerning filtering and control of diffusions in small white noise
(IEEE, 1997)The purpose of this talk is twofold. First, we examine in detail the binary hypothesis decision and/or estimation problem using a risk-sensitive cost criterion, when the state and observation processes are diffusion signals. ...
