- Disorder problem
-
In the study of stochastic processes in mathematics, a disorder problem (or quickest detection problem) has been formulated by Kolmogorov. Specifically, the problem is use ongoing observations on a stochastic process to decide whether or not to raise an alarm that the probabilistic properties of the process have changed.
An example case is to detect the change in the drift of a Wiener process.[1]
