bias: In a CCD camera system, the minimum intensity required for each exposure (equivalent to performing a zero-second exposure with the shutter closed) Without adding any light, the bias allows charge to be read out on the CCD while raising the intensity level high enough to ensure that the camera does not deliver a negative number to the A/D converter (The A/D converter only works in the set of positive numbers and has no instructions for processing negative numbers ) The bias, which is not user selectable, is set at the factory and remains stable over the lifetime of the camera system See CCD readout

bias: Deviation of results or inferences from the truth It can occur at any stage of a study from its design to the application of the information obtained from the study Bias can be reduced by proper study design and execution and not by increasing sample size Almost all studies have bias, but to varying degrees The key question is whether or not the results could be due in large part to bias, thus making the conclusions invalid Observational study designs are inherently more susceptible to bias than are experimental study designs The main categories are
bias: Bias occurs when problems in study design lead to effects that are not related to the variables being studied An example is selection bias, which occurs when study subjects are chosen in a way that can misleadingly increase or decrease the strength of an association Choosing experimental and control group subjects from different populations would result in a selection bias
bias: the systematic tendency of any factors associated with the design, conduct, analysis and evaluation of the results of a clinical trial to make the estimate of a treatment effect deviate from its true value Bias introduced through deviations in conduct is referred to as 'operational' bias The other sources of bias listed above are referred to as 'statistical'

bias: Deviation of results or inferences from the truth, or processes leading to such deviation

bias: The existence of a selective factor that will operate to determine the content of the sample in a particular way Generally, bias is an effect which deprives a statistical result of representatives by systematically distorting it, as compared to a random error which may distort on any one occasion, but which tends to balance on the average An example of the possibility of introducing a bias in sample results is to take a sample from a purchase journal where every tenth line is a utility bill A systematic sample with a sampling interval of (10) or some multiple of (10) will include either all utility bills or none Another example would be the selection for testing only those items which are simple to test or easy to locate
bias: In a sampling context, the difference between the conceptual weighted average value of an estimator over all possible samples and the true value of the quantity being estimated An estimator is said to be unbiased if that difference is zero The "systematic or persistent distortion of a measurement process which deprives the result of representativeness (i e , the expected sample measurement is different than the sample's true value) A data quality indicator" (QAMS 1993, 3)
bias: In feedforward and some other neural networks, each hidden unit and each output unit is connected via a trainable weight to a unit (the bias unit) that always has an activation level of -1 This has the effect of giving each hidden or output a trainable threshold, equal to the value of the weight from the bias unit to the unit
biased: favoring one person or side over another; "a biased account of the trial"; "a decision that was partial to the defendant"
biased: favoring one person or side over another; "a biased account of the trial"; "a decision that was partial to the defendant
