We study the Neyman-Pearson theory for convex expectations (convex risk measures) on $L^{\infty}(\mu)$. Without assuming that the level sets of penalty functions are weakly compact, a new approach different from the convex duality method is…
The composite binary hypothesis testing problem within the Neyman-Pearson framework is considered. The goal is to maximize the expectation of a nonlinear function of the detection probability, integrated with respect to a given probability…
Selective classification enhances the reliability of predictive models by allowing them to abstain from making uncertain predictions. In this work, we revisit the design of optimal selection functions through the lens of the Neyman--Pearson…
In this paper, we solve the existence problem of optimal stopping problem under some kind of nonlinear expectation named g_\Gamma expectation which was recently introduced in Peng, S.G. and Xu, M.Y. [8]. Our method based on our preceding…
We propose a universal classifier for binary Neyman-Pearson classification where null distribution is known while only a training sequence is available for the alternative distribution. The proposed classifier interpolates between…

The problem of simple $M-$ary hypothesis testing under a generic performance criterion that depends on arbitrary functions of error probabilities is considered. Using results from convex analysis, it is proved that an optimal decision rule…
Peng (2006) initiated a new kind of central limit theorem under sub-linear expectations. Song (2017) gave an estimate of the rate of convergence of Peng's central limit theorem. Based on these results, we establish a new kind of almost sure…
We describe a new framework of a sublinear expectation space and the related notions and results of distributions, independence. A new notion of G-distributions is introduced which generalizes our G-normal-distribution in the sense that…
In this paper we consider a sequence of random variables with mean uncertainty in a sublinear expectation space. Without the hypothesis of identical distributions, we show a new central limit theorem under the sublinear expectations.
We revisit the outlier hypothesis testing framework of Li \emph{et al.} (TIT 2014) and derive fundamental limits for the optimal test. In outlier hypothesis testing, one is given multiple observed sequences, where most sequences are…
Most existing binary classification methods target on the optimization of the overall classification risk and may fail to serve some real-world applications such as cancer diagnosis, where users are more concerned with the risk of…
Peng (2008)(\cite{P08b}) proved the Central Limit Theorem under a sublinear expectation: \textit{Let $(X_i)_{i\ge 1}$ be a sequence of i.i.d random variables under a sublinear expectation $\hat{\mathbf{E}}$ with…
In this paper, we obtain a new estimate for uniform integrability under sublinear expectations. Based on this, we establish the limit theorems under nonlinear expectations dominated by sublinear expectations through tightness, and the limit…
In this study, we propose the sublinear expectation structure under countable state space. To describe an interesting "nonlinear randomized" trial, based on a convex compact domain, we introduce a family of probability measures under…
We point out that the Neyman-Pearson lemma applies to Bayes factors if we consider expected type-1 and type-2 error rates. That is, the Bayes factor is the test statistic that maximises the expected power for a fixed expected type-1 error…

A unified framework is proposed for tests of unobserved heterogeneity in parametric statistic models based on Neyman's $C(\alpha)$ approach. Such tests are irregular in the sense that the first order derivative of the log likelihood with…
