Uncertainty

The uncertainty project seeks to develop new ways to calculate confidence limits by implementing geometric arithmetic on existing theory and re-deriving theory with the novel geometry-based format.  This should be an improvement in understanding and utility as it dovetails with novel error arithmetic and alleviates limitations in current methods. Uncertainty calculation essentially places an envelope,…

Geometric Arithmetic

Practical computation of error and uncertainty using traditional methods is hampered by many difficulties. For example, the ‘Differential method’ using partial differentiation requires ‘small errors’ and the functions must be simple with a low number of variables. In academics, effective instruction of error analysis during freshman-level science laboratory courses is prevented because multi-variable calculus is…
