This week, we need to do work to address a component of our application that requires immediate attention. As a result, you may experience ERA to be intermittently available. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause, and thank you for your patience as we attend to the care and feeding of ERA!

On Detecting Fake Coin Flip Sequences

Classification of data as true or fabricated has applications in fraud detection and verification of data samples. In this paper, we apply nonlinear filtering to a simplified fraud-detection problem: classifying coin flip sequences as either real or faked. On the way, we propose a method for generating Bernoulli variables with given marginal probabilities and pair-wise covariances. Finally, we present the empirical performance of the classification algorithm.
