  2. Scientific method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scientific_method

    e. The scientific method is an empirical method for acquiring knowledge that has characterized the development of science since at least the 17th century. The scientific method involves careful observation coupled with rigorous scepticism, because cognitive assumptions can distort the interpretation of the observation.

    The hourglass model starts with a broad spectrum for research, focusing in on the required information through the method of the project (like the neck of the hourglass), then expands the research in the form of discussion and results. The major steps in conducting research are: [30] Identification of research problem; Literature review

  4. Identifiability - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Identifiability

    Identifiability. In statistics, identifiability is a property which a model must satisfy for precise inference to be possible. A model is identifiable if it is theoretically possible to learn the true values of this model's underlying parameters after obtaining an infinite number of observations from it. Mathematically, this is equivalent to ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/System_identification

    The field of system identification uses statistical methods to build mathematical models of dynamical systems from measured data. [1] System identification also includes the optimal design of experiments for efficiently generating informative data for fitting such models as well as model reduction. A common approach is to start from ...
