Estimating a Repeatable Statistical Law by Requiring Its Stability During Observation

Consider a statistically-repeatable, shift-invariant system obeying an unknown probability law p(x) ≡ q2(x): Amplitude q(x) defines a source effect that is to be found. We show that q(x) may be found by considering the flow of Fisher information J → I from source effect to observer that occurs durin...
