Talk:Accuracy and precision
From AWF-Wiki
One statistical question
- Just to get my own statistical knowledge straight: Is precision quantified by the variance or the standard deviation while accuracy can be measured as the standard error of the mean?
Estimators - Without having looked them up:
Variance \( s^2 \)
Standard deviation \( \sqrt(s^2) \)
Standard error of the mean (for large populations) \( \sqrt(s^2/n) \)
