Examination uncertainty

Term · Chemistry · MLC-T-CHM-004159

The share of examined values that disagree with a reference nominal property value, out of all the examined values supplied. It is the complement of examination trueness and takes the place of measurement uncertainty for properties that are categories. It is therefore a proportion between 0 and 1, not a standard deviation or a confidence interval.
