Following the publication of the Original Article, the authors reported an error concerning the Supplementary Material, specifically in a file titled: BayesianDiagnosticInsightsInterface.pdf.
Regarding Subsection 5.4 (page 3), there was an error in the enumeration, as follows:
Each of the above modules allows users to define:
-
e)
The size, mean, and standard deviation of the measurements of a diseased and a nondiseased population sample.
-
a)
The univariate distribution of the measurements of each population (normal, lognormal, gamma).
A linear [\(\:{u}_{m}\left(x\right)\cong\:{b}_{0}+{b}_{1}t\)] or nonlinear [\(\:{u}_{m}\left(x\right)=\sqrt{{b}_{0}^{2}+{b}_{1}^{2}{t}^{2}}\))] equation of the measurement uncertainty versus the measurement value t and the number of the quality control (QC) measurements used to derive it.
-
b)
The measurement value t.
-
c)
The confidence level p of confidence intervals.
The correct enumeration is as follows:

-
a)

-
b)

-
d)
The measurement value t.
-
e)
The confidence level p of confidence intervals.
The correct Supplementary file is attached in this Correction. The Original Article has been corrected.
