The likelihood ratio and its applications in sequential analysis

Bennett Eisenberg and B. K. Ghosh

Journal of Multivariate Analysis, 1979, vol. 9, issue 1, 116-129

Abstract: The likelihood ratio is treated as a generalized Radon-Nikodym derivative for measures which need not be absolutely continuous. It is shown that a wide variety of identities and inequalities in sequential analysis follow directly from simple properties of likelihood ratios.
