Abstract

This paper gives a brief review of recent developments in change-point detection and in the associated boundary crossing problems. Making use of saddlepoint approximations for Markov random walks, we give further extensions of a basic result on boundary crossing probabilities, leading to detection procedures that are not too de-manding in computational and memory requirements and yet are nearly optimal under several performance criteria.
