Where do u get the SAM data? (2 Viewers)

In reply to Lazarus:
I hate research, especially on things I don't really need and this is one of them ^^

To find what aggregate you get you need to know how the subjects scale... and if it's a graph of UAI vs aggregate then how does it help you guys to predict UAI from marks of individual subjects? [you need the UAI vs aggregate graph but before that you need other graphs on the scaling]

table 3a gives the scaling

 

[mojako]

Is that it? [only table 3a that you used?]

yeah.

Laz might have used more though, he was much more dedicated.

What exactly are you trying to do, mojako?

nothing in particular.. just curious...

Laz seems to be slightly secretive about his methods.

Either he is being protective (and rightly so ) or he did something illegal hahaha jks

I have no qualms with people who simply want to understand the arcane procedures behind the UAI, and hence I am always happy to explain the actual methods used by the Technical Committee on Scaling and the UAC. However, I am more reluctant to provide detailed explanations regarding the technical workings of SAM and its algorithms - they form an integral component of our website. Everyone is free to write their own program (as jm123 has done), but there is no benefit to the public when it simply reproduces our service.

I'm not trying to make my ow program
no time...

And it is much more fun if you work out original methods
