  2. Errors and residuals - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Errors_and_residuals

    The statistical errors, on the other hand, are independent, and their sum within the random sample is almost surely not zero. One can standardize statistical errors (especially of a normal distribution ) in a z-score (or "standard score"), and standardize residuals in a t -statistic , or more generally studentized residuals .

  3. 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 ...

  4. Root mean square deviation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Root_mean_square_deviation

    The RMSD serves to aggregate the magnitudes of the errors in predictions for various data points into a single measure of predictive power. RMSD is a measure of accuracy , to compare forecasting errors of different models for a particular dataset and not between datasets, as it is scale-dependent.

  5. Observational error - Wikipedia

    Random errors are errors in measurement that lead to measurable values being inconsistent when repeated measurements of a constant attribute or quantity are taken. Random errors create measurement uncertainty .

  8. Non-sampling error - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Non-sampling_error

    Non-sampling errors in survey estimates can arise from: [3] Coverage errors, such as failure to accurately represent all population units in the sample, or the inability to obtain information about all sample cases; Response errors by respondents due for example to definitional differences, misunderstandings, or deliberate misreporting;

  9. Total survey error - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Total_survey_error

    Nonsampling error, which occurs in surveys and censuses alike, is the sum of all other errors, including errors in frame construction, sample selection, data collection, data processing and estimation methods.
