  2. Propagation of uncertainty - Wikipedia

    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 ...

    For example, if the length measurement L was high by ten percent, then the estimate of g would also be high by ten percent. If the period T was under estimated by 20 percent, then the estimate of g would be over estimated by 40 percent (note the negative sign for the T term).

  4. Mean percentage error - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mean_percentage_error

    Because actual rather than absolute values of the forecast errors are used in the formula, positive and negative forecast errors can offset each other; as a result, the formula can be used as a measure of the bias in the forecasts. A disadvantage of this measure is that it is undefined whenever a single actual value is zero.

  5. Symmetric mean absolute percentage error - Wikipedia

    In contrast to the mean absolute percentage error, SMAPE has both a lower and an upper bound. Indeed, the formula above provides a result between 0% and 200%. Indeed, the formula above provides a result between 0% and 200%.

    One can then also calculate the mean square of the model by dividing the sum of squares of the model minus the degrees of freedom, which is just the number of parameters. Then the F value can be calculated by dividing the mean square of the model by the mean square of the error, and we can then determine significance (which is why you want the ...

  7. Conversion (chemistry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conversion_(chemistry)

    Conversion and its related terms yield and selectivity are important terms in chemical reaction engineering.They are described as ratios of how much of a reactant has reacted (X — conversion, normally between zero and one), how much of a desired product was formed (Y — yield, normally also between zero and one) and how much desired product was formed in ratio to the undesired product(s) (S ...

  9. 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.
