How is the sigma calculated in monte carlo analysis?

Hi All,
I wonder how the Sigma is calculated in Monte Carlo Analysis.
I read the User Guide, it said the Sigma is related to Resistence value.
But seems the process of calculating the Sigma in User Guide is not correct...
Would anyone be able to provide some more details on the Sigma caculation?
I attached the Monte Carlo Analysis' result.
After some days' research, I can not figure out the caculation process...
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Gavin.

Hi,
Please take a look at the attached spreadsheet. This calculation is based on the sample RLC Circuit which is located in the Samples Folder >> Analysis >> Monte Carlo Analysis.
In essense the Sigma value is based on the Output Y Value and it shows what the peak value is on a specified distance from the calculated sigma of the entire data.
Hope this helps.

How is the integral calculated within Biobench

I am attempting to finish my thesis, and I can not find any literature on how the software calculates the intergral. Is the software utilizing continous analogue integration, constant reset time integration, or constant reset level integration? What value is it using for this?

Multisim expression error in Monte Carlo Analysis

I used Multisim’s (ver 10) Monte Carlo Analysis I tried using an expression as the output variable
V(2)-V(5)
and got the message that the output vectors didn’t exist. When I use them individually it worked fine. I tried using the Copy Variable to Expression and Copy Function to Expression method, I tried the double click method, and the just type it in method with the same results each time.
Am I doing something wrong or is it broken?

Mr Analog,
You are doing everything correctly, that feature is having problems but it is already addressed for our next summer update. Once your software gets updated in summer you will be able to enter expressions.

Future of quantitative analysis (Monte Carlo) in PPM

I'll start with I know you can't do it with the current version and have to use other software (Oracle Risk Analysis, Crystal Ball, @risk,...). I'm wondering if Oracle will be able to incorporate the full funtionality of PRA8.7 into PPMX.X?
Does anyone know if Oracle are planning this for a futur release or are even really looking at it?
Thanks to all for your input and opinions!!

How SAP standard run the interest calculation in AR module

Dear expert,
would like to seek for your advise, how SAP standard run the interest calculation in AR module ?
Also advise,does the interest calculation generate the interest base on the dunning run?What are relationship between interest calculation generate ?
What are the T-code for running the interest so that able to generate the interest posting according to baseline due date?
On top of that, does SAP have standard AR interest calculation report and what are the T-code ?
Between, do you have any ideal the Interest Indicator ZB stand and reminder date it is the last reminder date,waive,KIV and charge Interest and also noted item amount mean for in the AR Interest Calculation report?
Please help.
Regards,
Karen

Hi,
Thank you for the promtp reply.
I still have query would like to seek for your advise.
1.Does the interest calculation generate the interest base on the dunning run?For example, the interest is only can be post/generated when there is dunning run and vise versa.
2.What are relationship between interest calculation generate ?Does interest generation depand on the dunning run?
On top of that, does SAP have standard AR interest calculation report and what are the T-code ?
3.Between, do you have any ideal the reminder date it is the last reminder date,waive,KIV and charge Interest and also noted item amount mean for in the AR Interest Calculation report?
4.For posting use F.2B and that will calculate interest on open items of customers. Does this posting is post as noted item or posting document? Beside, do we every day need to run this posting F.2B in order to update the AR interest calculation report and post the interest for the overdue invoice?
5.Do you have any reference link/document /SAP notes on calculate interest on arres F.2B?
a)How the program calculate those overdue invoice for example: does sap calculate the interest base on interest + due amount until the customer made the payment?
b) If customer made payment on the due amount and not the interest and vise versa? How theF.2B program logic work on the calculation ?
Please help.

How do I create a 1d array that takes a single calculation and insert the result into the first row and then the next calculation the next time the loop passes that point and puts the results in thsecond row and so on until the loop is exited.

The attached file is work inprogress, with some dummy data sp that I can test it out without having to connect to equipment.
The second tab is the one that I am having the problem with. the output array from the replace element appears to be starting at the index position of 1 rather than 0 but that is ok it is still show that the new data is placed in incrementing element locations. However the main array that I am trying to build that is suppose to take each new calculation and place it in the next index(row) does not ap
pear to be working or at least I am not getting any indication on the inidcator.
Basically what I am attempting to do is is gather some pulses from adevice for a minute, place the results for a calculation, so that it displays then do the same again the next minute, but put these result in the next row and so on until the specifiied time has expired and the loop exits. I need to have all results displayed and keep building the array(display until, the end of the test)Eventually I will have to include a min max section that displays the min and max values calculated, but that should be easy with the min max function.Actually I thought this should have been easy but, I gues I can not see the forest through the trees. Can any one help to slear this up for me.

I didn't really have time to dig in and understand your program in depth,
but I have a few tips for you that might things a bit easier:
- You use local variables excessively which really complicates things. Try
not to use them and it will make your life easier.
- If you flowchart the design (very similar to a dataflow diagram, keep in
mind!) you want to gather data, calculate a value from that data, store the
calculation in an array, and loop while the time is in a certain range. So
theres really not much need for a sequence as long as you get rid of the
local variables (sequences also complicate things)
- You loop again if timepassed+1 is still less than some constant. Rather
than messing with locals it seems so much easier to use a shiftregister (if
absolutely necessary) or in this case base it upon the number of iterations
of the loop. In this case it looks like "time passed" is the same thing as
the number of loop iterations, but I didn't check closely. There's an i
terminal in your whileloop to read for the number of iterations.
- After having simplified your design by eliminating unnecessary sequence
and local variables, you should be able to draw out the labview diagram.
Don't try to use the "insert into array" vis since theres no need. Each
iteration of your loop calculates a number which goes into the next position
of the array right? Pass your result outside the loop, and enable indexing
on the terminal so Labview automatically generates the array for you. If
your calculation is a function of previous data, then use a shift register
to keep previous values around.
I wish you luck. Post again if you have any questions. Without a more
detailed understanding of your task at hand it's kind of hard to post actual
code suggestions for you.

How to handel this calculation in BI for the Mod. Production Planning ????

Hi All,
I have a scenario like this :
Look into the follwing Data.
PLANT |    RUNDATE|    WORK_CENTER|   SHIFT| PRODUCT_TYPE|    ALLOWED_TIME|   LINEHOUR1
1010--10/01/2007D0001A400--
0.114
1010--10/01/2007D0001B500--
0.142
1010--10/01/2007D0001C100--
0.028
1010--10/01/2007D0001D1100--
0.314
1010--10/01/2007D0001E600--
0.171
1010--10/01/2007D0001F800--
0.228
TOTAL ALLOWED_TIEM------       3500
1010--10/01/2007D0011A1400--
0.334
1010--10/01/2007D0011B500--
0.142
1010--10/01/2007D0011C100--
0.028
1010--10/01/2007D0011D1100--
0.314
1010--10/01/2007D0011E600--
0.171
1010--10/01/2007D0011F800--
0.228
TOTAL ALLOWED_TIEM------       4500
I have to calculate the Production Line Hours, based on the following calculation.
Now i have to input the value in the INFOOBJECT LINEHOUR1 based on the following calculation.
400 / 3500 = 0.114 (ALLOWED_TIME of every line item has to be divided with TOTAL ALLOWED_TIME)
500 / 3500 = 0.142
100 / 3500 = 0.028
1100 / 3500 = 0.314
.........so on
The workcenter is different is two blocks of example data, and hence to be calculated differently.
Now how to achive this,
I appriciate your insite on this problem.
Regards
Shaan.

Hi Philips,
Thanks for your response.
I want to make you more clear about the problem.
We are calculating based on the following combinations.
PLANT--RUNDATE-WORKCENTER-SHIFT-----PRODUCTTYPE
We have three different Plants.
Rundate is assume as the Calday.
We have 18 Workcenters.
Each Workcenter can have 3 shifts maximum.
And in every sift there would be 3 to 4 product types produced.
So what i mean to let you know is, the calculation is not based on WORKCENTER, where as it is based on all the five(5)
characteristics combination.
The total allowed time will be calculated based on PLANT......RUNDATE......WORKCENTER....SHIFT.
We normally calculate the linehour with the below formula...
(ALLOWED TIME/ TOTAL ALLOWED TIME) * (SHIFTTIME - DOWN TIME - BREAK TIME).
So i have all the information in the line item level except the TOTAL ALLOWED TIME.
Now i want to insert a new column in the CUBE and wanted to have the TOTAL ALLOWED TIME in every line item,
might not seem to be a good idea, but just let me know how to do it.
If it is not clear, you can ask me for further questions.
THANK YOU PHILIPS.

Shaan

How is the "Top Downloads" list calculated?

Does any one know how the "Top Downloads" on the iTunes U site is determined? The "Top Downloads" list has some correspondence with our weekly iTunes U report (I'm looking at the "Tracks" sheet in the report), but they're not nearly identical.

I don't know how "Top Downloads" is calculated exactly, so this is just a guess…
iTunes U usage data is held for the last sixty days. This corresponds to 8 weeks and 4 days. The weekly usage stats spreadsheets, on the other hand, go back just 4 weeks. In other words, if you request it, Apple can tell you what was going on with your site 60 days ago…even though the spreadsheet you get "this week" will only show activity for the past month. The admin guide also hints that "Top Downloads" is re-calculated one or more times each day, likely using the past 60 days' data.

How can I activate the average calculation with cl_salv_hierseq_table class

Hi there,
Iu2019m using class cl_salv_hierseq_table to display a two level hierarchy (header and item) list.
For some reason it seams that those calculations are active by default with class cl_salv_table but not for cl_salv_hierseq_table.
I tried every suggestion from the class documentation and SAP help and nothing seams to work, the menu calculation options are always inactive except for the total calculation.
After the cl_salv_hierseq_table=>factory...
And before cl_salv_hierseq_table->display( )
I triedu2026u2026.
cl_salv_aggregations = cl_salv_hierseq_table->get_aggregations( 1 )
cl_salv_aggregations->add_aggregation( 'COLUMN1' )
COLUMN1 is a currency column in header level table
u2026u2026..
cl_salv_aggregations = cl_salv_hierseq_table->get_aggregations( 2 )
cl_salv_aggregations->add_aggregation( 'COLUMN2' )
COLUMN2 is a dec column in item level table
u2026u2026..
cl_salv_aggregations = cl_salv_hierseq_table->get_aggregations( 2 )
cl_salv_aggregations->add_aggregation( columnname = 'COLUMN2' aggregation = if_salv_c_aggregation=>average )
u2026u2026..
cl_salv_aggregations = cl_salv_hierseq_table->get_aggregations( 2 )
cl_salv_aggregations->set_aggregation_allowed( 'COLUMN2' )
u2026u2026..
cl_salv_aggregations = cl_salv_hierseq_table->get_aggregations( 2 )
cl_salv_aggregations->set_numerical_aggregation( ).
cl_salv_aggregations->set_aggregation_allowed( 'COLUMN2' )
cl_salv_aggregations->add_aggregation( columnname = 'COLUMN2' aggregation = if_salv_c_aggregation=>average )
u2026u2026..
cl_salv_aggregations = cl_salv_hierseq_table->get_aggregations( 2 )
cl_salv_aggregations->add_aggregation( 'COLUMN2' )
cl_salv_aggregation = cl_salv_aggregations->get_aggregation( 'COLUMN2' )
cl_salv_aggregation->set( if_salv_c_aggregation=>average )
Any help will be appreciated!

Thanks Harsh Bhalla,
Subtotals can be built (displayed) at Header Level Only, true but the values to calculate those totals can come from either header or item level, otherwise it wouldnu2019t be of much use would it?
Anyway my question is how to activate the average calculation as well because the totals calculations is already active for either item or header level by default.
For reference when on the display layout Iu2019m referring to the menu Edit -> Calculate -> Mean Value.

How does the Centre of mass calculation within the Vision particle analysis function work?

I have been using the particle analysis function to establish the centre of mass of some particles. However on analysis some of the stated CofG's are clearly wrong. Does anybody know why this could be or how you can access the code that performs the calcution to check it?

Hi,
I don't think you can access the code that performs the calculation,
because that is NI's DLL, unless they let you see the source C/C++
code. But I know one algorithm to get the mass center is using the
moments calculation,
m(p,q)=double integral over x^py^qf(x,y)dxdy, and the mass center is:
Xc=m(1,0)/m(0,0), Yc=m(0,1)/m(0,0)
As a matter fact, you can see m(0,0) is actually the area
size of the
particle.

How can i add the Sigma 10mm 2.8 Fisheye lens profile from the camera profile in windows to lightroom 5?

It only seems to give me a 15mm fisheye option for Sigma and not the 10mm even though it is a profile in the camera profiles folder.
Can anyone help with importing this profile into Lightroom?

nickpearse wrote:
Just so it is black and white for my sake. I am shooting with a Nikon D7100 using a Sigma Fisheye 10mm 2.8 and using the Lens Profile of the Sigma 15mm 2.8mm on Lightroom.
Then the correct profile to use is the Sigma 10mm F2.8 if you want proper Vignetting correction and matching Distortion correction, but you'll need to shoot camera raw images (i.e. no JPEG lens profile). This is also why you are only seeing partial correction. As I said, "With a crop factor camera only the central crop area of the full-frame Sigma 15mm lens profile will be applied."
That said there is absolutely nothing wrong with using the Sigma 15mm lens profile with your crop factor Nikon D7100 if you are happy with the partial correction results, but you can also do this using the correct Sigma 10mm lens profile (set less than 100). There is a fisheye correction plugin called Fisheye-Hemi that works very similar in that it only applies partial correction. You're getting about the same results as Fisheye-Hemi for free using partial correction with the LR lens profile tool. That should make you happy! I suggest experimenting with both the 15mm and 10mm lens profiles and start shooting camera raw image files. Your're not realizing the camera's full capability shooting JPEGs!
In the DSC_7098 images posted none of them look very sharp (slow shutter speed?). Other than geometric correction I can't judge the posted images for "sharpness" in the corrected areas, which is the major concern. The biggest issue with rectilinear correction of fisheye images is loss of detail in areas with the most correction (edges and corners). If that were not the case people would use fisheye lenses for ALL wide-angle images and simply correct them inside LR. Sadly that's not the case and using LR's Lens Profile Distortion and other transform tools to correct fisheye images considerably softens the corrected areas (sides and corners).
Fisheye geometric distortion with some subjects is almost undetectable. So how much correction you need will vary by subject type and what the end use for the image. Any fisheye image that has correction applied will lose sharpness in the corrected areas, which may be fine for most purposes other than large prints.So it's best not to strive for 100% rectilinear correction–Just the correction needed to make the image look better.
Canon 8-15mm F4L FE on 5D MKII Full-Frame @ 15mm (No correction)
Looks good to me with no correction!
For more flexibility and better results PS's Wide Angle Adaptive filter and content aware fill tools will retain more image detail in the corrected areas. Here's the same lens and camera with an image processed in PS:
15mm Full-Frame Fisheye
LR Distortion = 50 (partial) PS Adaptive Wide Angle Filter + Content Aware Fill
The corner image detail is about the same in both of the above images at 1:1 view. Partial LR Distortion correction is good!
So what happens if I apply 100 Distortion correction to the image inside LR?
1:1 Compare View (lower-left) with LR Distortion = 100
100% LR Distortion correction of fisheye images is NOT good IMHO!

Numbers: How do I add a new "Term" with all the formulas included to the GPA calculator template?

I'm new to Numbers, and I am using the GPA calculator template. This includes 4 "terms" but I need 8. I have tried adding a new table but the formulas aren't included. How do I go about adding 4 new terms?

Click on one of the four tables that represent Terms and click on the little circle that is in the very top left of the table, this will highlight the entire table. Copy the table and paste a new one. Relabel the table Term 5.
In the GPA by term table, click in the cell that says Term 4, and add a new row; you can do this by holding Alt and pressing the down arrow. Label the new cell Term 5, and in cell A6 and put the formula =Term 5::C6 and in B6 put the formula =Term 5::D6.
Repeat for every term that you need.

How are the IC's calculated in the IIR Cascade Filter with I.C. vi

How are the IC's calculated in the IIR Cascade Filter with I.C. vi

Solved this myself.
Attached llb has subVI that computes the IC's needed to remove transient given a constant value step input to the IIR Filter.
Computes filter state (see app note 39) for cascade filter using z-transform final value theorem.
This version works for all filter types, ie lowpass, highpass, bandstop and bandpass.

Ravi.

Hi,
Calculate KF consists of Basic, restrict and other calculated kFs stored in Metadata repository.
Calculate KF is a replicate of Formula and acts as Global.
Calculate KF acts as Global--you can use Globally.
Formula as Local--you can use as local to Query.
you can create the Calculate KF as follow:
Goto Query Designer>Open/Create Query>Select Key Figures Mode on left side of Query>Select that KF node> right click Select Calculate Keyfigure.
then one popup window dispays, so you make the calculations based on Basic KF, Restirct Kf and Formule. then save it.
