Exact Quantification of Variance Error

چکیده
Abstract: This paper establishes a method for quantifying variance error in cases where the input spectral density has a rational factorisation. Compared to previous work which has involved asymptotic-in-model-order techniques and yielded expressions which are only approximate for finite orders, the quantifications provided here are exact for finite model order, although they still only apply asymptotically in the observed data length. The key principle employed here is the use of a reproducing kernel in order to characterise the model class, and this implies a certain geometric-type approach to the problem.

Standard error computations for uncertainty quantification in inverse problems: Asymptotic theory vs. bootstrapping
We computationally investigate two approaches for uncertainty quantification in inverse problems for nonlinear parameter dependent dynamical systems. We compare the bootstrapping and asymptotic theory approaches for problems involving data with several noise forms and levels. We consider both constant variance absolute error data and relative error which produces non-constant variance data in o...
متن کاملConndence Intervals for the between Group Variance in the Unbalanced Oneeway Random Eeects Model of Analysis of Variance Journal of Statistical Computation and Simulation
A conndence interval for the between group variance is proposed which is deduced from Wald's exact conndence interval for the ratio of the two variance components in the oneeway random eeects model and the exact conndence interval for the error variance resp. an unbiased estimator of the error variance. In a simulation study the conndence coeecients for these two intervals are compared with the...
متن کاملEstimation of Variance of Normal Distribution using Ranked Set Sampling
Introduction In some biological, environmental or ecological studies, there are situations in which obtaining exact measurements of sample units are much harder than ranking them in a set of small size without referring to their precise values. In these situations, ranked set sampling (RSS), proposed by McIntyre (1952), can be regarded as an alternative to the usual simple random sampling ...
متن کاملTotal Variance, an Estimator of Long-Term Frequency Stability
Total variance is a statistical tool developed for improved estimates of frequency stability at averaging times up to half the test duration. As a descriptive statistic, Total variance performs an exact decomposition of the sample variance of the frequency residuals into components associated with descending frequency octaves. As an estimator of Allan variance, Total variance has modest bias an...
متن کاملMeasurement error models with uncertainty about the error variance 1 Running head : MEASUREMENT ERROR MODELS WITH UNCERTAINTY ABOUT THE ERROR VARIANCE
It is well known that measurement error in observable variables induces bias in estimates in standard regression analysis and that structural equation models (SEM) are a typical solution to this problem. Often, multiple indicator equations are subsumed as part of the SEM model – allowing for consistent estimation of the relevant regression parameters. In many instances, however, embedding the m...
