            Abstract : 
We introduce the reproducing-kernel Hilbert space (RKHS) associated with the characteristic functional of a random process and use it to develop a general RKHS theory for non-Gaussian detection. Previously known results for choosing between processes with Gaussian and Poisson statistics are obtained as specializations of this theory.
