  4. Propagation of uncertainty - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Propagation_of_uncertainty

    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 ...

    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 .

    (1) The Type I bias equations 1.1 and 1.2 are not affected by the sample size n. (2) Eq(1.4) is a re-arrangement of the second term in Eq(1.3). (3) The Type II bias and the variance and standard deviation all decrease with increasing sample size, and they also decrease, for a given sample size, when x's standard deviation σ becomes small ...

  8. Mean absolute error - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mean_absolute_error

    MAE is calculated as the sum of absolute errors (i.e., the Manhattan distance) divided by the sample size: [1] = = | | = = | |. It is thus an arithmetic average of the absolute errors | e i | = | y i − x i | {\displaystyle |e_{i}|=|y_{i}-x_{i}|} , where y i {\displaystyle y_{i}} is the prediction and x i {\displaystyle x_{i}} the true value.

  9. Approximation error - Wikipedia

    In most indicating instruments, the accuracy is guaranteed to a certain percentage of full-scale reading. The limits of these deviations from the specified values are known as limiting errors or guarantee errors. [6]
