Estimation is the calculated approximation of a result which is usable even if input data may be incomplete, uncertain, or noisy. A calculation is a deliberate process for transforming one or more inputs into one or more results. ...

In statistics, see estimation theory, estimator. This article is about the field of statistics. ... Estimation theory is a branch of statistics and signal processing that deals with estimating the values of parameters based on measured/empirical data. ... In statistics, an estimator is a function of the observable sample data that is used to estimate an unknown population parameter; an estimate is the result from the actual application of the function to a particular set of data. ...

In mathematics, approximation or estimation typically means finding upper or lower bounds of a quantity that cannot readily be computed precisely and is also an educated guess . While initial results may be unusably uncertain, recursive input from output, can purify results to be approximately accurate, certain, complete and noise-free.

In mathematics, especially in order theory, an upper bound of a subset S of some partially ordered set is an element which is greater than or equal to every element of S. The term lower bound is defined dually. ... A related article is titled uncertainty. ... This article is about the concept of recursion. ... Categories: Move to Wiktionary | Stub | Chemistry ...
