TWO ALGORITHMS FOR THE AUTO-ESTIMATION OF THE UNCERTAINTY IN THE VIRTUAL INSTRUMENTATION

Salvatore Nuccio, Ciro Spataro
Abstract:
In our recent papers we have dealt with the assessment of the uncertainties associated with the virtual instrument measurements, proposing two completely different methods. The first one is based on an original application of the "uncertainty propagation law" of the ISO "Guide to the expression of uncertainty in measurement". The second one is a numerical approach, based on the Monte Carlo simulation. In this paper we show how the proposed approaches can be implemented in the virtual instruments in order to make the instrument itself able to auto-estimate the measurement uncertainties.
