To test the sensitivity of the parameter results to measurement errors, we also fitted the model to the same 5 data sets with different inputs and with 10% noise level together.
Heat-pulse flowmeter can be used to measure low flow velocities in a borehole; however, bias in the results due to measurement error is often encountered.
However, it produces results, which are sensitive to measurement error, and it measures the efficiency relative to the best practicing DMUs within the sample of DMUs included in the study.
First, it produces results that are sensitive to measurement error.
We consider it unlikely, given the type and extent of data available, that the results are biased due to measurement error.
However, like many empirical methods, DEA has the following main limitations: (i) DEA produces results that are very sensitive to measurement error, especially in small samples.
Non-significant results may have been due to measurement error, as pad tests without demonstrated reliability were used [ 44, 50] and because of the short duration of training, which may have been insufficient to effect physiological changes.
Atomic composition was determined at six rectangular areas for both coin A and coin B. Because of high spatial resolution, differences in results can be attributed not only to measurement error, but also to true local variations of composition of the coins.
The reliance on self-reported job histories makes our data vulnerable to measurement error resulting from inaccuracies in recall, which can decrease statistical power and attenuate the observed associations.
The extent of bias due to measurement error in these reported results is unclear.
