observational error

The asteroid was found to be in the expected position to within observational errors.

The detected motion was always less than the observational error.

The experimental control is a technique for dealing with observational error.

"The few that don't could be observational errors, or perhaps the person was seen there before she really disappeared.

Measured time negative as often as positive and never greater than inherent observational error."

Examples would be observational errors or sampling variation.

The repeated measurements help identify observational error.

Observational error (or measurement error) is the difference between a measured value of quantity and its true value.

The term observational error is also sometimes used to refer to response errors and some other types of non-sampling error.

Other non-lunar explanations include the viewing of Earth-orbiting satellites and meteors or observational error.

See also observational error.

This motion was evidently not due to parallax nor was it due to observational errors.

Note: Population statistics by religious affiliations are based upon statistical science and are subject to observational error (technically referred to as estimates).

Other sightings may have been of actual land, wrongly located through observational errors due to chronometer failure, bad weather or simple incompetence.

One may assume that the quantity being measured is stable, and that the variation between measurements is due to observational error.

If no value of the rotation parameter is successful and theory is not within observational error, a modification of physical law is considered.

These are categorized under the following: an unaccounted for real deceleration, observational errors, and explanations that would essentially be New Physics.

Within the limits of observational error, my best estimates of current epoch show that the initial singularity preceding the expansion occurred thirty-three billion years ago.

The possibility of observational errors, which include measurement and computational errors, has been advanced as a reason for interpreting the data as an anomaly.

For example, the observational error in an experiment is usually assumed to follow a normal distribution, and the propagation of uncertainty is computed using this assumption.

In statistics, statistical inference is the process of drawing conclusions from data that is subject to random variation, for example, observational errors or sampling variation.

The HWB solution is really fast to compute but it is optimal only if observational errors do not correlate between the data blocks.

In fact, Hubble's skepticism about the universe being too small, dense, and young was justified, though it turned out to be an observational error rather than an error of interpretation.

I happened at that time to be a Council member, and I was therefore able to point out that Bondi's listing of observational errors were all taken from well-attested literature.

All trajectory models are subject to uncertainty arising from interpolation of sparse meteorological data, assumptions regarding vertical transport, observational errors, sub-grid-scale phenomenon, turbulence, convection, evaporation, and condensation.
