The primary goal of the FSV project is to
develop a computer based technique to support quantitative validation of
computational electromagnetics and the quantification of experimental
repeatability. While the origin of this
work was in the Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) field, it is becoming of
increasing interest elsewhere.
The project started in the 1990s because there
were no suitable tools to validate developments in computational
electromagnetics and has gained substantial momentum over the last few
years.
The term Feature Selective Validation (FSV) was
coined by Dr
Much of the
current development is being undertaken in the Emerging
Technologies Research Centre at De Montfort University, UK, and The EMC Lab at
the University of L’Aquila, Italy, with other developments and support coming
from The Motor Industry Research Association (MIRA), UK; The EMC Lab at the University of Missouri
at Rolla, USA; IBM, North Carolina; Oklahoma State University and ANDRO Computational Solutions, Rome, NY.
The purpose of this website is to provide more
detail about the method: explaining where and how it is used. It also provides links to show how and where
you can download a copy, and information on current research and contacts.
There is also a link
below to an on-line survey. Please
follow this link and contribute to the FSV project.
Relevance to IEEE Standard development
The purpose
of this survey is to collect a large ‘group response’ for a number of
representative visual comparisons. The
results of this will be used to further improve the FSV method. The purpose of which is, of course, to mimic
a groups’ response to visual comparisons.
