The supremum distribution of another Gaussian process
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 14 July 2016
Abstract
A formula is derived for the supremum of a stationary Gaussian process which has a correlation function that is tent-like in shape, until it flattens out at a constant negative value. Examples and graphs are presented in the last section.
