Uncertainty is measured by the pixelwise standard deviations (SD).
The MRSM combines information in the prior TCO model and information in the TCO data:
After the prior model and the data have been combined, a posterior model is obtained by using Bayes' Theorem. The prior uncertainty (SD) changes to the posterior uncertainty (SD).
