When calibrating a sensor, the evaluation of the uncertainty of the estimated function is at least as important as the numeric values of the function itself.

Abstract

When calibrating a sensor, the evaluation of the uncertainty of the estimated function is at least as important as the numeric values of the function itself. The calibration process usually involves a least-squares fitting, performed, for example for a thermocouple, by comparing some voltage readings with corresponding temperatures from a reference thermometer. The aim of this work is to encourage the use of improved algorithms, based on an extended minimization criterion, which can overcome some limitations of the classic method.
