We study the problem of online network change point detection. In this setting, a collection of independent Bernoulli networks is collected sequentially, and the underlying distributions change when a change point occurs. The goal is to detect the change point as quickly as possible, if it exists, subject to a constraint on the number or probability of false alarms. In this paper, on the detection delay, we establish a minimax lower bound and two upper bounds based on NP-hard algorithms and…
