Temperature is by far the most commonly measured physical parameter. With so many new ideas for connected devices in the works for consumer and industrial applications, you often need high-accuracy ...

Test instruments such as oscilloscopes and DMMs (digital multimeters) often let you get the measurement results you need with just the press of a button. But the number on a meter's display or the ...

There are many ways that measurement can be used in the diagnostic process and in assessing the incidence of diagnostic errors, according to the committee that authored the Institute of Medicine’s ...

Process Engineer Richard Kasica of NIST’s Center for Nanoscale Science and Technology holds a wafer of the type typically produced in the plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition chamber. A new study ...

Measurement error models address the deviation between observed and true values, thereby refining the reliability of statistical inference. These frameworks are ...

Measure twice, cut once. That’s sound advice, though no guarantee you won't measure wrong twice. Some measuring errors occur before the ruler is in hand, while interpreting plans. Other errors spring ...

The focus of this paper is assessing the impact of measurement errors on the prediction error of an observed-score regression. Measures are presented and described ...
