1. A receiver, comprising:
an equalizer;
a decision circuit configured to identify an error probability of the equalizer with respect to a particular signal; and
a selection circuit to select the equalizer in response to a determination that the error probability of the equalizer with respect to the particular signal is below a threshold error value, the equalizer configured to process the particular signal responsive to the determination that the error probability of the equalizer with respect to the particular signal is below the threshold error value, wherein the threshold error value is based on an offset magnitude, wherein the offset magnitude is determined based on a probability density function of the error probability of the equalizer.
