  2. Accuracy and precision - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Accuracy_and_precision

    Accuracy is also used as a statistical measure of how well a binary classification test correctly identifies or excludes a condition. That is, the accuracy is the proportion of correct predictions (both true positives and true negatives) among the total number of cases examined. [10]

  3. Computational chemistry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computational_chemistry

    Chemical accuracy is the accuracy required to make realistic chemical predictions and is generally considered to be 1 kcal/mol or 4 kJ/mol. To reach that accuracy in an economic way, it is necessary to use a series of post-Hartree–Fock methods and combine the results. These methods are called quantum chemistry composite methods. [56]

  4. Quantum chemistry composite methods - Wikipedia

    Accurate structural parameters and vibrational frequencies are a natural byproduct of the method. While the computed molecular properties can be highly accurate, the computationally intensive nature of the FPD approach limits the size of the chemical system to which it can be applied to roughly 10 or fewer first/second row atoms.

  5. Exact sciences - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exact_sciences

    Ulugh Beg's meridian arc for precise astronomical measurements (15th c.). The exact sciences or quantitative sciences, sometimes called the exact mathematical sciences, [1] are those sciences "which admit of absolute precision in their results"; especially the mathematical sciences. [2]

  6. Analytical quality control - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Analytical_quality_control

    Validation of analytical procedures is imperative in demonstrating that a drug substance is suitable for a particular purpose. [5] Common validation characteristics include: accuracy, precision (repeatability and intermediate precision), specificity, detection limit, quantitation limit, linearity, range, and robustness.

  7. Quantum computational chemistry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/.../Quantum_computational_chemistry

    Quantum computational chemistry is an emerging field that exploits quantum computing to simulate chemical systems. Despite quantum mechanics' foundational role in understanding chemical behaviors, traditional computational approaches face significant challenges, largely due to the complexity and computational intensity of quantum mechanical equations.

  8. Calibration curve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calibration_curve

    A calibration curve plot showing limit of detection (LOD), limit of quantification (LOQ), dynamic range, and limit of linearity (LOL).. In analytical chemistry, a calibration curve, also known as a standard curve, is a general method for determining the concentration of a substance in an unknown sample by comparing the unknown to a set of standard samples of known concentration. [1]

  9. Mass (mass spectrometry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mass_(mass_spectrometry)

    The accurate mass (more appropriately, the measured accurate mass [9]) is an experimentally determined mass that allows the elemental composition to be determined. [10] For molecules with mass below 200 Da , 5 ppm accuracy is often sufficient to uniquely determine the elemental composition.
