Mismatched binary hypothesis testing: error exponent sensitivity

We study the problem of mismatched binary hypothesis testing between i.i.d. distributions. We analyze the tradeoff between the pairwise error probability exponents when the actual distributions generating the observation are different from the distributions used in the likelihood ratio test, sequent...
