Cramer-Rao lower bound on locations of sudden changes in a steplike signal

Estimation of locations of sudden changes in a steplike signal has many signal processing applications; e.g., well-log signal segmentation, ionic-channel signal classification, edge detection, and segmentation of images. In this work, the Cramer-Rao lower bound (CRLB) on locations of steps in one-di...

Zusammenfassung:Estimation of locations of sudden changes in a steplike signal has many signal processing applications; e.g., well-log signal segmentation, ionic-channel signal classification, edge detection, and segmentation of images. In this work, the Cramer-Rao lower bound (CRLB) on locations of steps in one-dimensional (1-D) steplike signals is calculated. The calculation is based on the use of a sigmoidal function to model a sudden-change (step) in the signal. The introduced model has an adjustable parameter that can be used to fit the CRLB calculation to a particular class of steplike signals.
