Abstract
It is considered the problem of localization on the plane of two radioactive sources by K detectors. Each detector records a realization of inhomogeneous Poisson process and the intensity function of this process is a sum of a signal arriving from the sources and the constant Poisson noise of known intensity. The time of the beginning of emissions of two sources is known and the main problem is the estimation of the position of the sources. The properties of the MLE and Bayessian estimators are described in the asymptotics of large signals in three situations of different regularities of the fronts of the signals: smooth, cusp-type and change-point type.
期刊介绍:
Statistical Inference for Stochastic Processes aims to publish high quality papers devoted to inference in either discrete or continuous time stochastic processes. This includes topics such as ARMA processes, GARCH processes and other time series models, as well as diffusion type processes, point processes, random fields and Markov processes. Papers related to spatial models and empirical processes are also within the scope of the journal. Special focus is placed on methodological advances and sound theoretical results, but submissions that expose potential applications of the developed theory to finance, insurance, economics, biology, physics and engineering are very much encouraged.
