Definition

Reproducibility is an expression of the precision of the candidate solution and is calculated across the microsensor samples of a candidate solution, it includes both the variability due to causes intrinsic to one sensor unit (e.g., measurement noise) and inter-device variability (e.g., due to the manufacturing process). It is calculated according to the ISO 5725-2 standard12 as the standard deviation of the reproducibility normalized by the measurement average and expressed as a percentage, 𝑠𝑅. (need to refer ISO 5725-2 2019)

Definition and Description

Reproducibility, quantifies the precision of a potential solution. It encompasses the combined effects of variability resulting from factors inherent to an individual sensor unit, such as measurement noise, as well as variations arising from inter-device differences, often attributed to the manufacturing process. Reproducibility is calculated in accordance with the ISO 5725-2 standard (specifically ISO 5725-2:2019) as the standard deviation of the normalized reproducibility, expressed as a percentage (denoted as 𝑠𝑅). It provides a measure of the consistency and reliability of measurements across microsensor samples within a candidate solution.
