Measurements and Error Analysis

نویسنده

  • Alan Greenspan
چکیده

The complete statement of a measured value should include an estimate of the level of confidence associated with the value. Properly reporting an experimental result along with its uncertainty allows other people to make judgments about the quality of the experiment, and it facilitates meaningful comparisons with other similar values or a theoretical prediction. Without an uncertainty estimate, it is impossible to answer the basic scientific question: “Does my result agree with a theoretical prediction or results from other experiments?” This question is fundamental for deciding if a scientific hypothesis is confirmed or refuted.

حل معادلات برآوردکننده مدل‌های رگرسیون با اندازه خطای تصادفی روی متغیر مستقل به روش بهینه سازی

Measurements of some variables in statistical analysis are often encountered with random errors. Therefore, investigating of the effects of these errors seems to be important. This event in regression analysis seems to be more necessary. Because the aim of the fitting a regression model is estimating the effect of an independent variable on a response variable. Then measurements of an independe...

Performance Enhancement of GPS/INS Integrated Navigation System Using Wavelet Based De-noising method

Accuracy of inertial navigation system (INS) is limited by inertial sensors imperfections. Before using inertial sensors signals in the data fusion algorithm, noise removal method should be performed, in which, wavelet decomposition method is used. In this method the raw data is decomposed into high and low frequency data sets. In this study, wavelet multi-level resolution analysis (WMRA) techn...

Process Improvement of Experimental Measurements Using D-optimal Models

In this paper, the application of D-optimal models, as an alternative to response surface models (RS models) for design of experiment (DOE) was examined. Two D-optimal models for tilt-rotors in the wind tunnel experiment, as a form of quadratic functions, were generated based on a chosen optimality criterion. This optimality criterion was used to generate the optimized sampled points in the des...
