Difference between Measurement and Uncertainty

Measurement vs. Uncertainty

Measurement is the quantification of attributes of an object or event, which can be used to compare with other objects or events. Uncertainty or incertitude refers to epistemic situations involving imperfect or unknown information.

Similarities between Measurement and Uncertainty

Measurement and Uncertainty have 9 things in common (in Unionpedia): Accuracy and precision, Engineering, Instrumentation, Measurement uncertainty, Metrology, National Institute of Standards and Technology, Observational error, Quantum mechanics, Statistics.

Accuracy and precision

Accuracy and precision are two measures of observational error.

The list above answers the following questions

  • What Measurement and Uncertainty have in common
  • What are the similarities between Measurement and Uncertainty

Measurement and Uncertainty Comparison

Measurement has 124 relations, while Uncertainty has 126. As they have in common 9, the Jaccard index is 3.60% = 9 / (124 + 126).
