The problem of estimation of a physical quantity from a set of measurements is considered, where the measurements are made on samples with a hierarchical error structure, and where within-groups error variances may vary from group to group at each level of the structure; minimum mean squared-error estimators are developed, and the case ...
We estimate the error of a multichannel laser refractometer in the investigation of an axially symmetric structure. We consider the effect of photon noise and determine the contribution of the intrinsic noise of the photodetector. We take into account the error due to fluctuation of the refractive index along the path of the light ...

The longest term correlations in living systems are the information stored in DNA which reflects the evolutionary history of an organism. The 4 bases (A,T,G,C) encode sequences of amino acids as well as locations of binding sites for proteins that regulate DNA. The fidelity of this important information is maintained by ANALOG error check mechanisms. When a single strand of ...
After a brief reference to some of the problems raised by tanks calibration, two methods, theoretical and experimental are presented, so as to achieve it taking into account measurement errors. The method is applied to the transfer of liquid from one tank...
is proposed. Using asynchronous unreliable absolute positions and reliable proprioceptive measurements by intervals taking errors into account. Integrity is assumed on proprioceptive measurements error bounds, and attitude information is unavailable at slow speeds. Proprioception is used to get relative motion
A medical error is conditioned in most cases by the absence of doctors' experience or by overvaluation of their knowledge and experience. It is necessary to conduct the proper control and set of events which will train them to feel the responsibility, to adhere to the standards of diagnostics and treatment, also to take into account the individual features ...
Ship flexure is currently an uncompensated phenomenon that is accounted for in system error budgets without apparent compromise of system performance. However, upcoming system performance requirements may not be able to absorb ship flexure errors. Analyse...
The paper gives a self contained account of linear least squares regression when the errors have an arbitrary error covariance matrix. The finite sample size case is treated algebraically by methods which are entirely analogous to those used for the asymp...
To account for student errors in simple procedural skills, Brown and Burton (1978), proposed 'the Buggy model.' In the model, a student's errors are seen as symptoms of a 'bug,' a discrete modification to the correct skills which effectively duplicates th...

MOTIVATION: Principal Component Analysis (PCA) is one of the most popular dimensionality reduction techniques for the analysis of high-dimensional datasets. However, in its standard form, it does not take into account any error measures associated with the data points beyond a standard spherical noise. This indiscriminate nature ...
While considerable advance has been made to account for statistical uncertainties in astronomical analyses, systematic instrumental uncertainties have been generally ignored. This can be crucial to a proper interpretation of analysis results because instrumental calibration uncertainty is a form of systematic uncertainty. Ignoring it can underestimate ...

OASIS has been providing for Oak Ridge National Laboratory's total safeguards needs since being place on line in April 1980. The system supports near real-time nuclear materials safeguards and accountability control. The original design of OASIS called for an automated facsimile of a 741 document to be prepared as a functional by-product of updating the inventory. An ...
Growing interest in fully Bayesian item response models begs the question: To what extent can model parameter posterior draws enhance existing practices? One practice that has traditionally relied on model parameter point estimates but may be improved by using posterior draws is the development of a common metric for two independently calibrated test forms. Before parameter ...
In wind turbine field testing, one of the most important issues is understanding and accounting for data errors. Extended dynamic testing of wind turbines requires a thorough uncertainty analysis and a regimen of quality assurance steps in order to preserve accuracy. Test objectives need to be identified to determine the accuracy requirements of any data ...

Interferometry is often used to measure the form of optical surfaces. While interferometry is generally expected to give high accuracy results, a variety of error influences exist which have to be considered. Some typical error influences which are often underestimated will be discussed in this paper. In flatness metrology, the main ...

Deviations from the circular shape of the cutting edge of a single-point turning tool cause form errors in the workpiece during contour cutting. One can compensate for these tool-form errors by determining the size of the effective deviation at a particul...
Perceiving the orientation of objects is important for interacting with the world, yet little is known about the mental representation or processing of object orientation information. The tendency of humans and other species to confuse mirror images provides a potential clue. However, the appropriate characterization of this phenomenon is not entirely clear, in part because the stimuli used in ...
We developed a semi-analytical method to evaluate the effect of the second-order ionospheric correction on GPS positioning. This method is based on the semi-analytical positioning error simulation method developed by Geiger and Santerre in which, assuming the continuous distribution of the satellites, a normal equation is formed to estimate the positioning ...
