Boundary Detection

I devised a new way to determine boundaries and tried out a simple version today. The idea is to assign a weight to possible boundaries by multiplying number of heads and number of tails at the point, after weighing with distance of these heads and tails from the point. Preliminary test seems satisfactory. Possible refinement can be done by tuning the window size and Poisson distribution parameter (lambda).

Fisher's Exact Test

Mulling over this statistical test for days, although I still haven't completely understood the details, I decided to do a preliminary test on Matlab.

Fortunately Octave can work on the Matlab file I downloaded. Now Pending for results...
