Regression techniques under ISO 9972 – a comparative analysis

The purpose of this work is to evaluate and compare various regression techniques—specifically Ordinary Least Squares (OLS), Weighted Least Squares (WLS), and Weighted Line of Organic Correlation (WLOC)—in the context of building airtightness measurements as prescribed by ISO 9972. The goal is to improve the accuracy...

Regressionstechniken gemäß ISO 9972 – vergleichende Analyse

Der Zweck dieser Arbeit ist die Bewertung und der Vergleich verschiedener Regressions- verfahren - insbesondere der gewöhnlichen kleinsten Quadrate (OLS), der gewichteten kleinsten Quadrate (WLS) und der gewichteten organischen Korrelationslinie (WLOC) – im Zusammen- hang mit Luftdichtheitsmessungen...

Analysing measurement data using regression analysis and error calculation

During this presentation I will discuss different methods of regression analysis and error calculation with regard to the review of the measurement standard ISO 9972. I will explain these methods and the ideas behind the formulas. I will present examples and charts to explain the different methods and evaluate them on the basis...
