1 Measurement & Uncertainty - Concept and its application June JongOh Choi (choijongoh@kriss.re.kr)
2 I don t know what I don t know. If we don t express what we know in the form of numbers, we really don t know much about it. If we don t know much about it, we can t control it. If we can t control it, we are at the mercy of chance.
3 Make it measurable!!! Head, Center of Standards and Quality management Chair, Uncertainty committee of KRISS Very Practical Philosopher on Measurement Education Ph. D. Analytical Chemistry, (1992) M. Eng. Chemical Engineering, (1983) B. Eng. Chemical Engineering, (1981) Field of Interest - Quality of Management (2005 -) - Uncertainty in Measurement (2003 -) - Reliability of Chemical measurement (National Research Laboratory 1999) - Analytical chemistry To be your Choice in Measurement More than 270 Lectures on Measurement & Uncertainty, Reference Materials, PT, QMS, Standards etc

10 Vocabulary Quantity property of a phenomenon, body, or substance, to which a number can be assigned with respect to a reference Value number and reference together expressing magnitude of a quantity Measurand : quantity intended to be measured Measurement process of experimentally obtaining one or more quantity values that can reasonably be attributed to a quantity Measurement result information about the set of quantity values being attributed to a measurand
11 What is your interpretation? The objective of a measurement is to determine the value of the measurand. (GUM, 1993) - True value (error approach) - Measured value (uncertainty approach)
12 GUM E.5.4. While the approach based on true value and error yields the same numerical results as the approach taken in this Guide, this Guide s concept of uncertainty eliminates the confusion between error and uncertainty. Indeed, this Guide s operational approach, wherein the focus is on the observed (or estimated) variability of the value, makes any mention of error entirely unnecessary.
13 Obtained from a training course on uncertainty?
14 Error In general, a measurement has imperfections that give rise to an error in the measurement result. Error = Measurement result True vale True value : value consistent with the definition of a given particular quantity
15 Error 1
16 Measurement result uncertainty Value Value and uncertainty (k=2, 95 %, level of confidence) Value for regulation Limit of Tolerance
17 Driver Under Influence with uncertainty
18 DUI I : Proper accusation? % the uncertainty is %.
19 DUI II : % No more false accusation? %
20 DUI III U = 2 u? U = 3 u % %
21 DUI IV? U = 3 u? % % the uncertainty is %.
22 Contents 1. Error vs. Uncertainty 2. Concept - measurement, traceability, uncertainty 3. Uncertainty evaluation 4. Uncertainty in multiple measurements
23 Zanzibar effect
24 Measurement, traceability and uncertainty Measurement Result (Value and uncertainty) Uncertainty in the value = Measurement Unknown/Known Uncertainty in comparison References Measurement Standards (include CRM) Known value and its uncertainty ( in Reference) + Given uncertainty
25 Review
26 Error 2 and uncertainty
27 Defining two errors Error 1 = Measurement result True vale True value : value consistent with the definition of a given particular quantity Error 2 = Measured value Reference value Reference value (Assigned value) : The reference quantity value can be a true quantity value of the measurand, in which case measurement error is unknowable, or an appropriate, known quantity value such as a conventional quantity value or a specified target quantity value to be realized in a production process.
28 Measurement, traceability and uncertainty Measurement Result (Value and uncertainty) Uncertainty in the value References Measurement Standards (include CRM) Measurement Unknown/Known Known value and its uncertainty ( in Reference) = Uncertainty in comparison Standard Procedure + (ISO Standards) Given uncertainty Measurement Procedure (ISO standards, EPA methods IAEA methods)
29 International Harmonisation Approach 1: Standardization harmonized methods Approach 2: Metrology Metrological traceability Measurement uncertainty prescribed methods/procedures prescribed method-performance characteristics 29
30 Who is going to win in the court?
31 Traceability of mass The kilogram is the unit of mass; it is equal to the mass of the international prototype of the kilogram. BIPM NMI
32 New need for traceability? Ancient Egypt Modern World Unit: cube meter (SI-System) Primary or Reference Measurement Standard: Working Measurement Standards: Application: granite cube wooden cube manufacture of stone blocks or pieces gauge blocks/laser, Interferometer micrometers, vernier caliper, etc. control of dimensions Recalibration period: each full moon according to frequency of usage Traceability: local International
33 Review 1. Measurement process of experimentally obtaining one or more quantity values that can reasonably be attributed to a quantity 2. Traceability property of a measurement result whereby the result can be related to a stated metrological reference through a documented unbroken chain of calibrations of measuring systems, each contributing to the measurement uncertainty 3. Measurement uncertainty Parameter that characterizes the dispersion of the quantity values that are being attributed to a measurand, based on the information used. (VIM 3, 2007)
34 Conceptual changes of uncertainty Classical approach ~ 1984 A measure of the possible error in the estimated value of the measurand as provided by the result of a measurement ~ 1992 An estimate characterizing the range of values with which the true value of a measurand lies (VIM 1) Uncertainty approach ~ 2007: Parameter associated with the result of a measurement, that characterizes the dispersion of the values that could reasonably be attributed to the measurand (VIM 2) 2008~: Parameter that characterizes the dispersion of the quantity value that are being attributed to a measurand, based on the information used. (VIM 3)

43 Please do not torture the data until it confess!! JongOh CHOI kriss.re.kr
44 PDB05014 Please don t torture the data!!!! Metrologists set up a measurement model, then improve it, if necessary. On the contrary, statisticians use the measured values to set up a statistical model, then explain the measurement results. We should take a KCRV as a result of collaborative measurement (to achieve compatible results), rather than of statistical treatments (for the explanation of errors).

45 No argument on measurement results!!!
46 This is what you are about to do
47 What is your interpretation? The objective of a measurement is to determine the value of the measurand. (GUM, 1993) - True value (error approach) - Measured value (uncertainty approach)
