The classical approach to system identification is based on stochastic assumptions about the measurement error, and provides estimates that have random nature. Worst-case identification, on the other hand, only assumes the knowledge of…

We derive a single-letter formula for the zero-rate reliability (error exponent) of a finite-state channel whose state variable depends deterministically (and recursively) on past channel inputs, where the code complies with a given channel…
