Including Covariances in Calibration to Obtain Better Measurement Uncertainty Estimates
Decisions are often based on the results of quantitative analysis. To gain confidence in these results, some indication of their quality is needed. Measurement uncertainty, as proposed by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO), is a way to express this quality. Most measurement techniques compare references and therefore need to be calibrated. Usually least squares methods ign...
متن کاملNuclear Data Evaluation for Jendl
Evaluation of nuclear data for JENDL Actinide File and High Energy Files is now in progress. JENDL Actinide File will contain evaluated nuclear data for 89 nuclides horn 2 0 8= to ‘5Fm including main fissile and fertile nuclides. The data are evaluated in the neutron energy region from 10‘5 eV to 20 MeV, by widely using theoretical calculations and systematic of parameters and cross sections. E...
متن کاملUsing lagged covariances in data assimilation
This paper describes a novel method to incorporate significantly time-lagged data into a sequential variational data assimilation framework. The proposed method can assimilate data that appear many assimilation window lengths in the future, providing a mechanism to gradually dynamically adjust the model towards those data. The method avoids the need for an adjoint model, significantly reducing ...
متن کاملFitting surfaces to data with covariances
We are concerned with solving an equation whose form is applicable to a wide class of problems arising in computer vision. The equation typically relates image point locations to the parameters of some appropriate model. We assume that each measured datum is accompanied by a covariance matrix that characterises the uncertainty of the measurement. Noisy data are assumed to be in plentiful supply...
متن کاملEvaluation and Analysis of Nuclear Resonance Data
The probabilistic foundations of data evaluation are reviewed, with special emphasis on parameter estimation based on Bayes' theorem and a quadratic loss function, and on modern methods for the assignment of prior probabilities. The data reduction process leading from raw experimental data to evaluated computer les of nuclear reaction cross sections is outlined, with a discussion of systematic ...
