https://doi.org/10.1351/goldbook.I03124
A method to estimate uncertainties in the results of a least-squares procedure. The input data are primary values plus limits of intervals expressing their uncertainty. The output consists of derived values plus limits of intervals expressing a pessimistic estimate of maximal uncertainty.
