Author´s reply to `On the generalized multinomial distribution, optimal multinomial detectors, and generalized weighted partial decision detectors´ by N.C. Beaulieu

Beaulieu (see ibid., vol.39, no.2, p.193, 1991) states that the equivalence between the generalized multinomial detectors and the generalized weighted partial decision detectors is obscured by E.K. Al-Hussaini (see ibid., vol.37, p.1099, 1989), who concluded that the former outperforms the latter. In reply, Al-Hussaini clarifies his results
