Download or read book Measurement Uncertainty written by Simona Salicone and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2007-06-04 with total page 235 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The expression of uncertainty in measurement poses a challenge since it involves physical, mathematical, and philosophical issues. This problem is intensified by the limitations of the probabilistic approach used by the current standard (the GUM Instrumentation Standard). This text presents an alternative approach. It makes full use of the mathematical theory of evidence to express the uncertainty in measurements. Coverage provides an overview of the current standard, then pinpoints and constructively resolves its limitations. Numerous examples throughout help explain the book’s unique approach.

Download or read book Guidelines for Evaluating and Expressing the Uncertainty of NIST Measurement Results rev Ed written by Barry N. Taylor and published by DIANE Publishing. This book was released on 2009-11 with total page 25 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Results of measurements and conclusions derived from them constitute much of the technical information produced by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST). In July 1992 the Director of NIST appointed an Ad Hoc Committee on Uncertainty Statements and charged it with recommending a policy on this important topic. The Committee concluded that the CIPM approach could be used to provide quantitative expression of measurement that would satisfy NIST¿s customers¿ requirements. NIST initially published a Technical Note on this issue in Jan. 1993. This 1994 edition addresses the most important questions raised by recipients concerning some of the points it addressed and some it did not. Illustrations.

This book was released on 2020-12-29 with total page 61 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Master's Thesis from the year 2015 in the subject Computer Science - Applied, grade: 2, University of Applied Sciences Coburg, language: English, abstract: The project shall contribute to the further development of a prototypical implementation for an assistance solution supporting measurement uncertainty analysis within the existing framework. The main tasks in this project will be: Familiarisation with the topic of measurement uncertainty analysis and the handling of software GUM Workbench®, definition of an design outline for the user support during measurement uncertainty analysis, including an analysis of required supporting function and the subsequent definition of a possible system structure, selection of one aspect in the process and development of a draft for an adequate support solution, containing elements to enable partial automation or increase of efficiency for the process step as well as explanatory information for the users, prototypical implementation and testing of the defined elements within the outlined framework. In the "Guide to the Expression of Uncertainty in Measurement" (GUM), jointly issued by ISO and BIPM, a standard procedure for the determination of measurement uncertainty is defined. Yet, although this document is supported by many international organisations and the consideration of measurement uncertainty is of high importance in many fields of application, ranging from industrial quality control to scientific research, still often the determination of measurement uncertainty is omitted. This is mainly due to difficulties of the metrologists to apply the general rules of the GUM to the task at hand. To ease this task and support the determination of measurement uncertainty, the software GUM Workbench® performs all required mathematical evaluations based on a model of the measurement. Additionally, a concept for an assistance system as well as a graphic modelling editor has been developed to facilitate the definition of a suitable model. But, the existing concepts are not yet fit for practical testing under industrial conditions.

Download or read book Measuring Uncertainty within the Theory of Evidence written by Simona Salicone and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-04-23 with total page 330 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This monograph considers the evaluation and expression of measurement uncertainty within the mathematical framework of the Theory of Evidence. With a new perspective on the metrology science, the text paves the way for innovative applications in a wide range of areas. Building on Simona Salicone’s Measurement Uncertainty: An Approach via the Mathematical Theory of Evidence, the material covers further developments of the Random Fuzzy Variable (RFV) approach to uncertainty and provides a more robust mathematical and metrological background to the combination of measurement results that leads to a more effective RFV combination method. While the first part of the book introduces measurement uncertainty, the Theory of Evidence, and fuzzy sets, the following parts bring together these concepts and derive an effective methodology for the evaluation and expression of measurement uncertainty. A supplementary downloadable program allows the readers to interact with the proposed approach by generating and combining RFVs through custom measurement functions. With numerous examples of applications, this book provides a comprehensive treatment of the RFV approach to uncertainty that is suitable for any graduate student or researcher with interests in the measurement field.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Education is a hot topic. From the stage of presidential debates to tonight's dinner table, it is an issue that most Americans are deeply concerned about. While there are many strategies for improving the educational process, we need a way to find out what works and what doesn't work as well. Educational assessment seeks to determine just how well students are learning and is an integral part of our quest for improved education. The nation is pinning greater expectations on educational assessment than ever before. We look to these assessment tools when documenting whether students and institutions are truly meeting education goals. But we must stop and ask a crucial question: What kind of assessment is most effective? At a time when traditional testing is subject to increasing criticism, research suggests that new, exciting approaches to assessment may be on the horizon. Advances in the sciences of how people learn and how to measure such learning offer the hope of developing new kinds of assessments-assessments that help students succeed in school by making as clear as possible the nature of their accomplishments and the progress of their learning. Knowing What Students Know essentially explains how expanding knowledge in the scientific fields of human learning and educational measurement can form the foundations of an improved approach to assessment. These advances suggest ways that the targets of assessment-what students know and how well they know it-as well as the methods used to make inferences about student learning can be made more valid and instructionally useful. Principles for designing and using these new kinds of assessments are presented, and examples are used to illustrate the principles. Implications for policy, practice, and research are also explored. With the promise of a productive research-based approach to assessment of student learning, Knowing What Students Know will be important to education administrators, assessment designers, teachers and teacher educators, and education advocates.
