Overview: How Does Bayesian Metrology Work?

Simple Example The basic idea behind the Bayesian approach is illustrated with a simple example.
Case Studies The application of Bayesian metrology is demonstrated in the following case studies.
  • "Using Bayesian Methods to Improve a Calibration Program: Calibration of a Pressure Transducer Using Dynamic Linear Modeling", Charles Hagwood. Case study available in PDF format.

  • "Benzo[c}phenanthrene in SRM 1975, Diesel Extract", Mark Vangel, James Yen, and Kimball Kniskern. Case study available in PDF format.

  • "Michelson's 1879 Determination of the Speed Of Light: A Case Study in Bayesian Metrology", Mark Vangel. Case study available in PDF format.

  • "Bayesian Analysis of a NIST Dataset: Interlaboratory Study on Thermal Conductivity", Mark Vangel. Case study available in PDF format.

  • "Bayesian Analysis of a NIST Dataset: Spectrophotometer Calibration With Between Run Variability", Mark Vangel. Case study available in PDF format.
