On the Complexity of Measurement in Classical Physics
If we measure the position of a point particle, then we will come up with an interval [an, bn] into which the point falls. We make use of a Gedankenexperiment to find better and better values of an and bn, by reducing their separation, in a succession of intervals [a1, b1] ⊃ [a2, b2] ⊃ . . . ⊃ [an, bn] that contain the point. We then use such a point as an oracle to perform relative computation...
متن کاملMeasurement Uncertainties in Wear Rates
Measurement uncertainties are vital to discussions of differences in measured values, yet they scarcely accompany discussions of wear and wear rates in the tribology literature. In this methods article, approaches to calculate uncertainties in single-point and steady-state wear rates are presented. The analysis includes analytical treatments of uncertainties for typical macroscopic tribology in...
متن کاملCoupling Classical and Quantum Variables using Continuous Quantum Measurement Theory
We propose a system of equations to describe the interaction of a quasiclassical variable X with a set of quantum variables x that goes beyond the usual mean field approximation. The idea is to regard the quantum system as continuously and imprecisely measured by the classical system. The effective equations of motion for the classical system therefore consist of treating the quantum variable x...
متن کاملMeasurement Uncertainties in Speaker Recognition Evaluation
The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) Speaker Recognition Evaluations (SRE) are an ongoing series of projects conducted by NIST. In the NIST SRE, speaker detection performance is measured using a detection cost function, which is defined as a weighted sum of probabilities of type I error and type II error. The sampling variability results in measurement uncertainties of the ...
متن کاملNon-classical Measurement Theory: a Framework for Behavioral Sciences
Instances of non-commutativity are pervasive in human behavior. In this paper, we suggest that psychological properties such as attitudes, values, preferences and beliefs may be suitably described in terms of the mathematical formalism of quantum mechanics. We expose the foundations of nonclassical measurement theory building on a simple notion of orthospace and ortholattice (logic). Two axioms...
