  3. Experimental uncertainty analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Experimental_uncertainty...

    The form of Eq(12) is usually the goal of a sensitivity analysis, since it is general, i.e., not tied to a specific set of parameter values, as was the case for the direct-calculation method of Eq(3) or (4), and it is clear basically by inspection which parameters have the most effect should they have systematic errors. For example, if the ...

    For example, consider the common modes of failure of a RAID1 where two disks are purchased from an online store and installed in a computer: The disks are likely to be from the same manufacturer and of the same model, therefore they share the same design flaws.

  5. Propagation of uncertainty - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Propagation_of_uncertainty

    Any non-linear differentiable function, (,), of two variables, and , can be expanded as + +. If we take the variance on both sides and use the formula [11] for the variance of a linear combination of variables ⁡ (+) = ⁡ + ⁡ + ⁡ (,), then we obtain | | + | | +, where is the standard deviation of the function , is the standard deviation of , is the standard deviation of and = is the ...

  6. Instrument error - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Instrument_error

    If the users know the amount of the systematic error, they may decide to adjust for it manually rather than having the instrument expensively adjusted to eliminate the error: e.g. in the above example they might manually reduce all the values read by about 4.8%.

  7. Optical aberration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Optical_aberration

    The Gaussian theory, however, is only true so long as the angles made by all rays with the optical axis (the symmetrical axis of the system) are infinitely small, i.e., with infinitesimal objects, images and lenses; in practice these conditions may not be realized, and the images projected by uncorrected systems are, in general, ill-defined and ...

    Everyone loves a comforting bowl of chicken soup—especially hard-to-beat classics like chicken and dumplings or chicken noodle soup. I truly believe there is no better medicine than a warm bowl ...

  9. Unbiased rendering - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unbiased_rendering

    Unbiased rendering in computer graphics refers to techniques that avoid systematic errors, or biases, in the radiance approximation of an image. This term specifically relates to statistical bias, not subjective bias. Unbiased rendering aims to replicate real-world lighting and shading as accurately as possible without shortcuts.
