Glossary

  • A function is the set of all elements required to represent the physical model.
  • Creation and optimization of functions and parameters occur in the context of a project. This project can be saved and loaded. One project at a time can be opned and edited in one instance of ASCMO-MOCA.
  • The residual is the discrepancy between measured data and function calculation. ASCMO-MOCA distinguishes between relative, absolute, and studentized error.
  • The residual is the discrepancy between measured data and function calculation. ASCMO-MOCA distinguishes between relative, absolute, and studentized error.
  • The root mean square error (RMSE) is a measure of the deviation of the predictions of a model from the actual values of the modeled object. The single deviation is called residuum.
  • The root mean square error (RMSE) is a measure of the deviation of the predictions of a model from the actual values of the modeled object. The single deviation is called residuum.
  • Roughness describes the change in slope from one grid point of a curve, pap, or cube to the next.
  • A scalar is a 0-dimentional calibration parameter.
  • A system constant is a container for an element that cannot be changed. The counterpart o a system constant is a variable.
  • Generally, a tolerance is a threshold which, if crossed, stops the iterations of a solver.
