  2. Propagation of uncertainty - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Propagation_of_uncertainty

    This formula is based on the linear characteristics of the gradient of and therefore it is a good estimation for the standard deviation of as long as ,,, … are small enough. Specifically, the linear approximation of f {\displaystyle f} has to be close to f {\displaystyle f} inside a neighbourhood of radius s x , s y , s z , … {\displaystyle ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calibration_curve

    A calibration curve plot showing limit of detection (LOD), limit of quantification (LOQ), dynamic range, and limit of linearity (LOL).. In analytical chemistry, a calibration curve, also known as a standard curve, is a general method for determining the concentration of a substance in an unknown sample by comparing the unknown to a set of standard samples of known concentration.

    (Usually the expansion is done to first order; the second-order terms are needed to find the bias in the mean. Those second-order terms are usually dropped when finding the variance; see below). 5. With the expansion in hand, find the expected value. This will give an approximation for the mean of z, and will include terms that represent any bias.

  7. Dixon's Q test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dixon's_Q_test

    To apply a Q test for bad data, arrange the data in order of increasing values and calculate Q as defined: Q = gap range {\displaystyle Q={\frac {\text{gap}}{\text{range}}}} Where gap is the absolute difference between the outlier in question and the closest number to it.

  8. Approximation error - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Approximation_error

    Best rational approximants for π (green circle), e (blue diamond), ϕ (pink oblong), (√3)/2 (grey hexagon), 1/√2 (red octagon) and 1/√3 (orange triangle) calculated from their continued fraction expansions, plotted as slopes y/x with errors from their true values (black dashes)

  9. Standard error - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Standard_error

    This approximate formula is for moderate to large sample sizes; the reference gives the exact formulas for any sample size, and can be applied to heavily autocorrelated time series like Wall Street stock quotes. Moreover, this formula works for positive and negative ρ alike. [12] See also unbiased estimation of standard deviation for more ...
