 We can do this by making the decision that minimizes the probability of error *conditional* on the measurement $R = r$. We can do this by making the decision that minimizes the probability of error *conditional* on the measurement $R = r$.

 The resulting conditional probability of error is: The resulting conditional probability of error is:

 Since we are just comparing $P(H_0|R = r)$ and $P(H_1|R = r)$, we can cancel out the $f_R(r)$ on both sides, so it is equivalent to comparing $P(H_0) f_{R|H}(r|H_0)$ and $P(H_1) f_{R|H}(r|H_1)$: Since we are just comparing $P(H_0|R = r)$ and $P(H_1|R = r)$, we can cancel out the $f_R(r)$ on both sides, so it is equivalent to comparing $P(H_0) f_{R|H}(r|H_0)$ and $P(H_1) f_{R|H}(r|H_1)$:

 The likelihood ratio $\Lambda(r)$ is defined as: The likelihood ratio $\Lambda(r)$ is defined as:
  
-$$ \Lambda(r) = \frac{P(H_1) f_{R|H}(r|H_1)}{f_{R|H}(r|H_0)} $$+$$ \Lambda(r) = \frac{f_{R|H}(r|H_1)}{f_{R|H}(r|H_0)} $$
  
 We can compare this likelihood ratio to the threshold $\eta$, which is the ratio between the a priori probabilities: We can compare this likelihood ratio to the threshold $\eta$, which is the ratio between the a priori probabilities:
