Abstract:
Additive manufacturing (AM), also known as 3D printing, has gained significant interest due to the freedom it offers in creating complex-shaped and highly customized parts with little lead time. However, a current challenge of AM is the lack of geometric accuracy of fabricated parts. To improve the geometric accuracy of 3D printed parts, this paper presents a three-dimensional geometric compensation method that allows for eliminating systematic deviations by morphing the original surface mesh model of the part by the inverse of the systematic deviations. These systematic deviations are measured by 3D scanning multiple sacrificial printed parts and computing an average deviation vector field throughout the model. We demonstrate the necessity to filter out the random deviations from the measurement data used for compensation. Case studies demonstrate that printing the compensated mesh model based on the average deviation of five sacrificial parts produces a part with deviations about three times smaller than measured on the uncompensated parts. The deviation values of this compensated part based on the average deviation vector field are less than half of the deviation values of the compensated part based on only one sacrificial part.

Abstract:
Objective. To systematically review the international literature for internal nasal septal deviation classification systems and summarize them for clinical and research purposes. Data Sources. Four databases (including PubMed/MEDLINE) were systematically searched through December 16, 2015. Methods. Systematic review, adhering to PRISMA. Results. After removal of duplicates, this study screened 952 articles for relevance. A final comprehensive review of 50 articles identified that 15 of these articles met the eligibility criteria. The classification systems defined in these articles included C-shaped, S-shaped, reverse C-shaped, and reverse S-shaped descriptions of the septal deviation in both the cephalocaudal and anteroposterior dimensions. Additional studies reported use of computed tomography and categorized deviation based on predefined locations. Three studies graded the severity of septal deviations based on the amount of deflection. The systems defined in the literature also included an evaluation of nasal septal spurs and perforations. Conclusion. This systematic review ascertained that the majority of the currently published classification systems for internal nasal septal deviations can be summarized by C-shaped or reverse C-shaped, as well as S-shaped or reverse S-shaped deviations in the anteroposterior and cephalocaudal dimensions. For imaging studies, predefined points have been defined along the septum. Common terminology can facilitate future research.

Abstract:
The study aims to assess the additional systematic error caused by the assessment of the depolarization constant. Based on the long time assessment of this constant, a mean value and a standard deviation can be retrieved. A sensitivity study could assess the deviation of the depolarization value in high and low depolarizing atmospheric layers. Based on these deviations, the systematic error of the calibration is retrieved and included in the final depolarization products.

Abstract:
This paper presents the technique of decomposition of form deviation based on the use of wavelet filter and Fourier transform. The method allows decomposing the total deviation into systematic, random systematic (waviness) and random components. The method testing was carried out for the statistics of the deviation of the suction side of the turbine engine compressor blade. The accuracy check of the estimates of form deviations generated by the method in a series of simulated surfaces with pre-laid characteristics was carried out. The results showed that the method of decomposition allows one to estimate exactly the components of the form deviation of the simulated surfaces in their series.

Abstract:
ABSTRACT: In an internal control audit, the consequences and assessment subjectivity of control problems motivate managers to try to persuade auditors to lower the assessed severity of an observed control deviation. We report an experiment in which 106 audit seniors evaluate either information technology (IT) or manual control deviations that are potentially indicative of significant deficiencies, after exposure to persuasion tactics based in either concession or denial. For IT control deviations, we find that auditors assess the significance of deficiency lower and the perceived adequacy of management's explanation higher for concessions than for denials. For manual control deviations, we find no differences between concessions and denials. Our results provide evidence of a systematic bias in auditor judgment and indicate a rationale for the ubiquity of management persuasion attempts around control deviations—sometimes they work.

Abstract:
AbstractThe results of an international project involving five countries and seven laboratories performing over 400 analyses for testing the interlaboratory reproducibility and accuracy using quantitative powder diffraction are presented in this report. Four natural and four artificial mineral mixtures were examined. The RIR (reference intensity ratio) values for all mineral components were either measured or calculated. The relative standard deviation of the interlaboratory determinations range from 5 to 20 percent (for low concentrations, the relative standard deviations can attain 60% percent). Due to systematic errors, the relative standard deviations of the interlaboratory determinations generally exceed the standard deviations determined by individual laboratories. The best results were obtained when the RIR values were measured independendy in each laboratory.

Full text
Abstract:
The design of additive manufacturing processes, especially for batch production in industrial practice, is of high importance for the propagation of new additive manufacturing technology. Manual redesign procedures of the additive manufactured parts based on discrete measurement data or numerical meshes are error prone and hardly automatable. To achieve the required final accuracy of the parts, often, various iterations are necessary. To address these issues, a data-driven geometrical compensation approach is proposed that adapts concepts from forming technology. The measurement information of a first calibration cycle of manufactured parts is the basis of the approach. Through non-rigid transformations of the part geometry, a new shape for the subsequent additive manufacturing process was derived in a systematic way. Based on a purely geometrical approach, the systematic portion of part deviations can be compensated. The proposed concept is presented first and was applied to a sample fin-shaped part. The deviation data of three manufacturing cycles was utilised for validation and verification.

Abstract:
We used ‘selfies’, self-portraits taken with a hand-held smartphone camera, to test three known principles of photographic composition: The rule of thirds, the golden ratio rule, and the eye centering principle. Although they are often taught and discussed, the origin of these principles remains unclear. It is possible that they stem from constraints on human perceptual processes. Alternatively, these principles might serve more practical purposes, such as forcing photographers to explore all quadrants of the image. Selfies provide an ideal test bed for these questions due to the control they give self-photographers when they compose the photograph. We used a database of images created by non-professional photographers (). After analysis, we conclude that there little support for any of the three principles, suggesting that none is strongly rooted in spontaneous perceptual preferences.

Abstract:
Implant therapy is currently the treatment of choice for the replacement of missing teeth. Correct implant positioning is of vital importance. To this end, radiographic techniques providing 3D information and guided surgery techniques, both static and dynamic, have been developed. The primary objective of this work is to study whether placing dental implants in partially edentulous patients with guided surgery techniques results in less, equal or greater precision than placing them freehand. The secondary objectives are to gain an understanding of the advantages and disadvantages, indications, limitations, and complications of this type of surgery. A literature search was performed in Pubmed and BVS, and six randomized clinical trials meeting the marked inclusion criteria were included. The different guided surgery techniques were compared with each other and with the traditional method. Freehand surgery was found to be the least accurate, as the implants placed with this technique showed the largest deviations between the planned position and the final position, both when calculating the global (3D) deviation and when measuring the deviation in each of the axes (vertical, mesio-distal, bucco-lingual and lateral), and the angular deviation and voxel overlap. In contrast, the most accurate surgeries were fully guided and half-guided, with the smallest deviations between the planned and final implant position. With any guided surgery technique, more precise implant positioning is achieved than with freehand placement. Advantages include reduced trauma and surgery time; disadvantages include reduced primary implant stability and higher cost. This type of surgery is more indicated in cases of critical anatomy, but may encounter limitations in terms of cost, degree of buccal opening, visibility and adjustment of the guides and the need for prior familiarization with the procedure. Nevertheless, this surgical technique reduces the complication rate.

Abstract:
The paper examines and discusses possible explanations of the systematic deviations between conventional and intensity-based sound transmission loss measurements frequently reported in the literature. Both the conventional diffuse-field method and the method based on the sound intensity technique are subject to several systematic errors of comparable size. The sources of error include non-linear decay functions, the absorption of the partition itself, and intensity measurement errors, which are aggravated by the fact that the sound field conditions are usually fairly difficult. It is concluded that with very careful measurement procedures there are no systematic deviations.

Abstract:
The aim of this study was to systematically review the current scientific literature regarding the accuracy of fully guided flapless implant positioning for complete-arch rehabilitations in edentulous patients and to assess if there was any statistically significant correlation between linear deviation at shoulder point, at apex point and angular deviation. The electronic and manual literature search of clinical studies was carried out using specified indexing terms. A total of 13 studies were eligible for qualitative analysis and 277 edentulous patients were rehabilitated with 1556 implants patients by means of fully guided mucosa-supported template-assisted flapless surgery. Angular deviation was 3.42° (95% CI 2.82–4.03), linear deviation at shoulder point 1.23 mm (95% CI 0.97–1.49) and linear deviation at apex point 1.46 mm (95% CI 1.17–1.74). No statistically significant correlations were found between the linear and angular deviations. A statistically significant correlation was found between the two linear deviations (correlation coefficient 0.91) that can be summarized by the regression equation y = 0.03080 + 0.8254x. Computer-assisted flapless implant placement by means of mucosa-supported templates in complete arch restorations can be considered a reliable and predictable treatment choice despite the potential effects that flapless approach could bring to the overall treatment.

Abstract:
A systematic study is made of the data dependence of the parameter A b , that, since 1995, has shown a deviation from the Standard Model prediction of between 2.4 and 3.1 standard deviations. Issues addressed include: The effect of particular measurements, values found by individual experiments, LEP/SLD comparison, and the treatment of systematic errors. The effect, currently at the 2.4σ level, is found to vary in the range from 1.7σ to 2.9σ by excluding marginal or particularly sensitive data. Since essentially the full LEP and SLD Z-decay data sets are now analyzed the meaning of the deviation, (new physics or marginal statistical fluctuation) is unlikely to be given by the present generation of colliders.

Abstract:
Groove is a sensation of movement or wanting to move when we listen to certain types of music; it is central to the appreciation of many styles such as Jazz, Funk, Latin, and many more. To better understand the mechanisms that lead to the sensation of groove, we explore the relationship between groove and systematic microtiming deviations. Manifested as small, intentional deviations in timing, systematic microtiming is widely considered within the music community to be a critical component of music performances that groove. To investigate the effect of microtiming on the perception of groove we synthesized typical rhythm patterns for Jazz, Funk, and Samba with idiomatic microtiming deviation patterns for each style. The magnitude of the deviations was parametrically varied from nil to about double the natural level. In two experiments, untrained listeners and experts listened to all combinations of same and different music and microtiming style and magnitude combinations, and rated liking, groove, naturalness, and speed. Contrary to a common and frequently expressed belief in the literature, systematic microtiming led to decreased groove ratings, as well as liking and naturalness, with the exception of the simple short-long shuffle Jazz pattern. A comparison of the ratings between the two listener groups revealed this effect to be stronger for the expert listener group than for the untrained listeners, suggesting that musical expertise plays an important role in the perception and appreciation of microtiming in rhythmic patterns.

Abstract:
Reverse engineering is a new technique employed in product design wherein original drawings or pertinent technical data are not available. Reverse engineering technology acquires the conceptual designs from the existing products and consequently creates digital product models. In the product design these digital products are employed with optimization principles. The investigation in this paper encompasses 3-D reconstruction of products by the reverse engineering technique and consequently identifying the deviations between the original product and the reverse engineered model. Design of experiments is a systematic study in the consideration of the governing parameters and there by arriving at the optimization stage. In this investigation response surface methodology method is employed by taking the input parameters viz noise level, smoothing level and triangle count %; and there by identified the responses namely deviation and curvature deviation occurred from the existing physical model. The deviations and curvature deviations are in the range 0.0266 to 0.0621 mm and 0.543 (54.3%) to 0.645 (64.5%) respectively which indicate that the reverse engineered freeform surface is not exhibiting significant difference when compared to the original CAD model. Response surface contours are constructed for determining the optimum process conditions.

Abstract:
Purpose: This paper describes our experiences of implementing systematic in vivo dosimetry at the Norfolk and Norwich Hospital and reviews the results of 2,254 entrance dose measurements made over a 17-month period.Methods and materials: Entrance dose measurements using p-type diodes were performed on all new planned patients. The calibration procedure and correction factors applied are described. A 4% tolerance was applied.Results: The results of all measurements indicated a small mean deviation from expected entrance dose of 10.77% and a standard deviation of 2.85%. 16.7% of all measurements exceeded the 4% tolerance with 9.2% exceeding a 5% level. The estimated overall errors for 578 treatments were calculated using the weighted averages of all beams. A narrower SD of 1.96% combined with only 4.8% of all treatments exceeding a 4% tolerance show that large deviations from a single field do not always translate into significant overall errors.Conclusions: Global dosimetric accuracy was within clinically acceptable limits and variations between measured and expected doses were mainly attributable to factors affecting diode reading. A number of errors in calculating deviations and the inconsistent application of the protocol suggest the need for interfacing the diode system with software control.

Abstract:
We analyze cross-correlation between return fluctuations of stocks of an emerging market by using random matrix theory (RMT). We test the statistics of eigenvalues of cross-correlation (C) between stocks of the Tehran Price Index (TEPIX) as an emerging market and compare these with a mature market (US market). According to the "null hypothesis," a random correlation matrix constructed from mutually uncorrelated time series, the deviation from the Gaussian orthogonal ensemble of RTM is a good criterion. We find that a majority of the eigenvalues of C fall within the bulk (RMT bounds between λ+and λ-) for the eigenvalues of the random correlation matrices. Further, we find that the distribution of eigenvector components for the eigenvectors corresponding to the largest deviating eigenvalues, display systematic deviations from the RMT prediction. Analyzing the components of the deviating eigenvectors by Inverse Participation Ratio, leads us to know that the largest eigenvalue corresponds to an influence common to the whole market. Our analysis of the other deviating eigenvectors shows distinct industries, whose identities corresponds to the structure of the Iran business environment.

Abstract:
29Si NMR spectra of trimethylsilyl (TMS) and tert-butyldimethylsilyl (TBDMS) derivatives of selected diols were measured under standardized conditions (i.e., in diluted CDCl3 solutions). Application of the recently reported correlation between the chemical shifts in TMS and TBDMS derivatives revealed considerable and systematic deviations which exceeded experimental errors and error estimates from the correlation. Two possible explanations of the deviations are considered: interaction between the two bulky substituent groups and invalidity of the reported correlation for simple hydroxy derivatives. An independent study of analogous derivatives of monohydroxy compounds has shown that the linear correlation holds but the slope and intercept are significantly different from those reported previously on the basis of a study of amino acid derivatives. The data obtained for the diol derivatives fit the new correlation very well and no indication of an interaction between the bulky TBDMS groups was noticed. However, deviations do occur in branched diol derivatives in which branching reduces accessibility of the oxygen atoms surface to associate with proton donors. The largest deviation was found when intramolecular hydrogen bond was formed.

Abstract:
Objective: To estimate the prevalence of spine postural deviations in Brazilian schoolchildren. Method: Searches were conducted in databases EMBASE, LILACS, PubMed, SCOPUS, SciELO, Science Direct, and Web of Science, as well as manual searches to identify studies that evaluated the prevalence of spine postural deviations in Brazilian schoolchildren. Two independent reviewers realized the study selection, evaluated the methodological quality and the risk of bias and extracted data. The homogeneity between the studies was evaluated and the quality of evidence level using the GRADE system. Results: 29 studies were included, of which extracted the frequency of positive events to changes in cervical, thoracic and lumbar spine, as well as the frequency of scoliosis between schoolchildren. Even performing the meta-analysis separated by subgroups according to the spine region, the heterogeneity level it was up to 90%, it is not possible to perform the meta-analysis to estimate the prevalence of spine postural deviations in Brazilian schoolchildren. Conclusion: There is low strength of evidence to establish a consensus about the values of the prevalence of spine postural deviations in Brazilian schoolchildren.

Abstract:
Fengyun-3C (FY-3C) is the first Chinese satellite that is capable of using the Radio Occultation (RO) technique to retrieve atmospheric profiles. This research evaluates the quality of FY-3C RO profiles including refractivity, temperature, and specific humidity by comparing with corresponding information from the European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts (ECMWF) Interim Reanalysis (ERA-Interim) data over the period of 2015–2018. The evaluation is carried out by calculating and analyzing mean systematic differences between FY-3C and ERA-Interim profiles and corresponding standard deviations over a selected spatial and temporal domain. Results show that the FY-3C RO profiles are overall with good agreements with the ERA-Interim data. Global mean refractivity systematic differences are within ±0.2% from 5 to 30 km altitude range with relative standard deviations of less than 2%. Global temperature mean systematic differences vary within ±0.2 K from a 10- to 20-km altitude range with standard deviations of less than 2 K. Global mean specific humidity differences are found to be within ±0.2 g/kg from 2 to 20 km with standard deviations of less than 1 g/kg. FY-3C profiles show visible latitudinal and altitudinal variations, while the seasonal variations are minor. Sampling errors of refractivity and temperature are also found to be larger at higher latitudinal regions due to RO events being less sampled in the polar region.

Abstract:
Second language learners, in acquiring English as a second language, make errors based on their cognition of concepts. The perception of linguists and teachers about errors inform their approach to language research and pedagogies. Linguists and teachers who have negative attitudes towards errors consider them as deviations that need to be prevented at all costs, while others perceive the errors as innovation. Indeed, while deviations could be innovative and contribute immensely to the development of new varieties of languages, some deviations are clearly deficits that could influence the acquisition process leading, and language teachers need to respond to these deviations appropriately. Through a systematic review of literature, the article presents an evaluation of errors (deviations or innovation) and their pedagogical purposes for applied linguists and teachers.

ABSTRACTAssess clinical studies regarding accuracy between virtual planning of computer-guided surgery and actual outcomes of dental implant placements in total edentulous alveolar ridges. A PubMed search was performed to identify only clinical studies published between 2011 and 2016, searching the following combinations of keywords: “Accuracy AND Computer-Assisted Surgery AND Dental Implants.” Study designs were identified using the terms: Case Reports, Clinical study, Randomized Controlled Trial, Systematic Reviews, Meta-Analysis, humans. Level of agreement between the authors in the study selection process was substantial (k = 0.767), and the study eligibility was considered excellent (k = 0.863). Seven articles were included in this review. They describe the use of bone and muco-supported guides, demonstrating angular deviations cervically and apically ranging from (minimum and maximum means), respectively, 1.85-8.4 (°), 0.17-2.17 (mm), and 0.77-2.86 (mm). Angular deviations obtained most inaccuracy in maxila. For cervical and apical deviations, accuracy was preponderantly lower in maxilla. Despite the similar deviations measurement approaches described, clinical relevance of this study may be useful to warn the surgeon that safety margins in clinical situations.

Abstract:
Increasing project complexity and greater levels of fast-tracking on construction projects make the need for quickly detecting and diagnosing a deviation in a construction performance measure from its planned value a challenging task. In such a rapidly changing environment, timely detection of deviations is critical so that the most effective corrective actions can be taken. This paper presents an integrated model that is capable of predicting and diagnosing construction performance deviations based on a combination of field measurements and subjective assessments of performance-related factors. The proposed system is based on the synergistic integration of the soft computing approaches of fuzzy set theory, neural networks, and genetic algorithms. A systematic methodology to elicit and represent qualitative construction performance knowledge from a group of experts is presented. The essential features of the model are described in detail and are implemented in a computer system called XCOPE (explaining construction performance).

Abstract:
AbstractThis article deals with uncertainty in the analysis of strain in silicon nanoscale structures and devices using nanobeam electron diffraction (NBED). Specimen and instrument related errors and instabilities and their effects on NBED analysis are addressed using a nanopatterned ultrathin strained silicon layer directly on oxide as a model system. We demonstrate that zero-loss filtering significantly improves the NBED precision by decreasing the diffuse background in the diffraction patterns. To minimize the systematic deviations the acquired data were verified through a reliability test and then calibrated. Furthermore, the effect of strain relaxation by specimen preparation using a FIB is estimated by comparing profiles, which were acquired by analyzing slices of strained structures in a 220-nm-thick region of the sample (invasive preparation) and the entire strained nanostructures, which are embedded in a thicker region of the same sample (noninvasive preparation). Together with the random deviation, the corresponding systematic shift results in a total deviation of ∼1 × 10−3 for NBED analyses, which is employed to estimate the measurement uncertainty in the thinner sample region. In contrast, the strain in the thick sample region is not affected by the preparation; the systematic shift reduces to a minimum, which improves the total deviation by ∼50%.

Abstract:
This work is devoted to the research of the real-time estimation of 500 kV power transmission lines parameters with PMU based on the solution of the optimization problem of minimizing the root-mean-square deviations of the specific line parameters or the sum of the modules of the correlation coefficients between the specific parameters and the sum of the squares of the voltages or currents measured at the ends of the line. Independent optimization variables are the correction factors of the measuring systems of currents and voltages. Based on an artificially simulated PMU dataset with specified Gaussian noise and systematic errors, it is shown that the use of correlation coefficients in the objective function is more effective than standard deviations. All 5 estimated coefficients turned out to be closer to the reference values. The results of calculations are obtained from the data of real PMUs for an operating 500 kV line with a length of 504.6 km. The deviation of the specific capacitive conductivity from the nominal value is 0.13%, compared with - 0.29% when using the sum of squares of deviations as an objective function.

Abstract:
Fitting Spatial Models of Geometric Deviations of Free-Form Surfaces Determined in Coordinate MeasurementsLocal geometric deviations of free-form surfaces are determined as normal deviations of measurement points from the nominal surface. Different sources of errors in the manufacturing process result in deviations of different character, deterministic and random. The different nature of geometric deviations may be the basis for decomposing the random and deterministic components in order to compute deterministic geometric deviations and further to introduce corrections to the processing program. Local geometric deviations constitute a spatial process. The article suggests applying the methods of spatial statistics to research on geometric deviations of free-form surfaces in order to test the existence of spatial autocorrelation. Identifying spatial correlation of measurement data proves the existence of a systematic, repetitive processing error. In such a case, the spatial modelling methods may be applied to fitting a surface regression model representing the deterministic deviations. The first step in model diagnosing is to examine the model residuals for the probability distribution and then the existence of spatial autocorrelation.

Abstract:
Abstract An improved management of secondary raw materials (SRM) is a crucial contribution for a circular economy and necessitates knowledge about the composition of wastes and SRM. However, this information is scarce and has to be determined with chemical analysis (CA). CA of SRM faces challenges, which can be approached by using round robin tests (RRT) to identify deviations from the “true value” of an element/molecule content. An RRT is a testing approach, which involves multiple labs to analyze one or more samples and evaluates the lab results with regard to the goal of the RRT. This article presents a systematic literature review and investigates which purposes and which performance parameters (PP) are commonly applied in RRT of SRM. The examined literature shows that the two main purposes applied are assessment of method performance and assessment of lab performance. PP can be categorized into trueness performance parameters (TPP; assessing the deviation of a value from a reference value) and precision performance parameters (PPP; describing the variability of a data set). The main TPP identified are z score and relative deviation, the main PPP identified are standard deviation and relative standard deviation. These results offer the conclusions that RRT can be used as a bespoke method to deal with analytical effects and that the selection of PP for an RRT could be based on simplicity.

Abstract:
Objective: Continuous outcome measures are essential in rehabilitation research. Incomplete reporting of their mean and standard deviation, required for meta-analysis, potentially introduces bias and imprecision if it prevents studies being included. We aimed to determine how often systematic reviewers encounter missing mean or standard deviation values and to recommend practical statistical solutions. Design: 1. Cross-sectional survey of systematic review authors. 2. Reanalysis of Cochrane review data to evaluate how accurately statistical methods for recovering missing mean or standard deviation values estimate the true meta-analysis treatment effect. Setting: Rehabilitation intervention systematic reviews. Participants: Cochrane stroke rehabilitation review authors; stroke patients. Interventions: Reanalysis of a Cochrane review of early supported discharge services. Main measures: Hospital length of stay. Results: Survey responses covered 53 of 70 Cochrane reviews. Almost all studied continuous outcome measures, 68% encountering missing summary statistics. Various solutions were attempted but 76% of meta-analyses omitted at least one study due to missing information. In the review reanalysis ( N = 1055), a method based on the minimum and maximum performed best in recovering missing standard deviations; a method based on the median, lower and upper quartiles successfully estimated a missing mean. Conclusion: Practical statistical methods help reduce risk of bias, maximise the evidence included in rehabilitation meta-analyses and offer a clear hierarchy of solutions to handling unreported mean and standard deviation values.
