A central limit theorem for the Euler integral of a Gaussian random field

Abstract: Euler integrals of deterministic functions have recently been shown to have a wide variety of possible applications, including in signal processing, data aggregation and network sensing. Adding random noise to these scenarios, as is natural in the majority of applications, leads to a need for statistical analysis, the first step of which requires asymptotic distribution results for estimators. The first such result is provided in this paper, as a central limit theorem for the Euler integral of pure, Gaussian, noise fields.
