5 From Lecture 4 Error Propagation: Summary: Error Analysis with Real Numbers To understand the accuracy of our numbers, we need to determine a confidence interval. with 95.0% confidence For replicate data with, replace 2 with The Standard error for a measured quantity is the sum, in quadrature, of: determined by replicates by estimate of reading error by estimate of calibration error Standard error for derived quantities (arrived at from equations), is obtained through error propagation, which is a combination of variances. Replication improves the estimation of the mean. The prediction interval of the next value of x should encompass 95% of all measured values. The answer from replicates is more reliable than single values (if no systematic errors). 95% PI: or The weighting values indicate the impact of individual errors on the final value. Estimates for (particularly those obtained through ) may need to be re evaluated, if unreasonably narrow confidence intervals are identified. if 68 9 Now, how do we determine uncertainty from numbers that we obtain as parameters in a curve fit? 10 5

7 Solution: Assume you know the with certainty ( ordinary least squares) Guess a line, Create a measure of the error between the guess and the data (error measure should always be positive, so square it) Add these individual error measures to calculate a sum of squared errors, Use calculus (derivatives) to find the values of and that result in the least sum of squared error. 1 2 data slope intercept line 13 slope intercept Result: 1 2 Least squares slope Least squares intercept In Excel: SLOPE(y range, x range) INTERCEPT(y range,x range) 14 7

22 slope intercept One final piece of advice: Uncertainty Often, you can transform your data to make it linear, allowing you to use linear regression. For example, if you know the data vary as the square root of the data, then versus will be linear. If data plotted with log log scaling (using scatterplot) look quadratic, then log versus log will be quadratic, and we can use trendline to obtain a fit: log log log Transforming data can greatly broaden our ability to fit empirical models to data. 43 Professor Faith Morrison Department of Chemical Engineering Michigan Technological University Done! 44 22

23 Comment on Curve Fitting: Coefficient of Determination, Which data set has a larger? y data x data 45 Comment on Curve Fitting: Coefficient of Determination, Which data set has a larger? y = x R² = y data y = x R² = x data 46 23

24 Comment on Curve Fitting: Coefficient of Determination, is a measure of the comparison of the hypothesized linear relationship and the relationshiop constant(horizontal line). So, if it is a horizontal line, will be zero. From page 6: 47 Which is the correct fit? y = 2.005x R² = y data 15.0 y data y = x x x x R² = x data x data 48 24

25 Which is the correct fit? y = 2.005x R² = y data 15.0 y data y = x x x x R² = x data x data (it depends on the error bars) Likely that the linear fit is a truer relationship to be used for interpolation 49 25
