Abstract :
The resource constrained detection theory outlined is a unique approach to the fusion of classical decision theory and real world problems. Real world detection systems are designed to allocate limited resources. The authors describe a technique to include the effect of these limitations in the system design. The resulting detection criterion is compared with classical detection criteria and seen to provide better performance
