calibration and validation

Calibration and validation are methods used to ensure that a model or instrument provides accurate and reliable results. Calibration involves adjusting the model or device to align its outputs with known standards or real-world measurements, ensuring accuracy. Validation assesses whether the calibrated model or device accurately predicts or represents new, unseen data, confirming its reliability. In essence, calibration fine-tunes the system, while validation tests its performance under different conditions to ensure trustworthiness and applicability.
