Receiver operation characteristics of quantum state discrimination
  We provide a description of the problem of the discrimination of two quantum states in terms of receiver operation characteristics analysis, a prevalent approach in classical statistics. Receiveroperation characteristics diagrams provide an expressive representation of the problem, in which quantities such as the fidelity and the trace distance also appear explicitly. In addition we introduce an alternative quantum generalization of the classical Bhattacharyya coefficient. We evaluate our quantum Bhattacharyya coefficient for certain situations and describe some of its properties. These properties make it applicable as another possible quantifier of the similarity of quantum states.
