Gene Ward Smith defines the TE error as the ratio {{nowrap|‖''M''<sub>''W''</sub> ∧ ''J''<sub>''W''</sub>‖/‖''M''<sub>''W''</sub>‖}}, derived from the relationship of TE simple badness and TE complexity. See the next section. We denote this definition of TE error ''Ψ''. From {{nowrap|‖''M''<sub>''W''</sub> ∧ ''J''<sub>''W''</sub>‖/‖''M''<sub>''W''</sub>‖}} we can extract a coefficient {{nowrap| sqrt(''C''(''n'', ''r'' + 1)/''C''(''n'', ''r'')) {{=}} sqrt((''n'' − ''r'')/(''r'' + 1)) }}, which relates ''Ψ'' with ''E'' as follows: | Gene Ward Smith defines the TE error as the ratio {{nowrap|‖''M''<sub>''W''</sub> ∧ ''J''<sub>''W''</sub>‖/‖''M''<sub>''W''</sub>‖}}, derived from the relationship of TE simple badness and TE complexity.

''G'' and ''ψ'' error both have the advantage that higher-rank temperament error corresponds directly to rank-1 error, but the RMS normalization has the further advantage that in the rank-1 case, {{nowrap| ''G'' {{=}} sin ''θ'' }} octaves, where ''θ'' is the angle between ''J''<sub>''W''</sub> and the val in question. | ''G'' and ''ψ'' error both have the advantage that higher-rank temperament error corresponds directly to rank-1 error, but the RMS normalization has the further advantage that in the rank-1 case, {{nowrap| ''G'' {{=}} sin ''θ'' }} octaves, where ''θ'' is the angle between ''J''<sub>''W''</sub> and the val in question. | ||
Sintel | In Sintel's routine, the TE error may be derived as the ratio {{nowrap|‖''M''<sub>''U''</sub> ∧ ''J''<sub>''U''</sub>‖/‖''M''<sub>''U''</sub>‖}}, using ''U''-weighted norm (see the next section), which evaluates to the same value as Graham's definition. A hybrid RMS version of this is implemented in the [https://github.com/FloraCanou/temperament_evaluator Temperament Evaluator], with the extra factor 1/sqrt(''n''). | ||

Gene Ward Smith defines the simple badness | Graham Breed's simple badness is directly derived from this formula. | ||
Gene Ward Smith defines the simple badness as {{nowrap|‖''M''<sub>''W''</sub> ∧ ''J''<sub>''W''</sub>‖<sub>RMS</sub>}}. A perhaps simpler way to view this is to start with a mapping matrix ''V''<sub>''W''</sub> and add an extra row ''J''<sub>''W''</sub> corresponding to the just tuning map; we will label this matrix ''Ṽ''<sub>''W''</sub>. Then the simple badness is: | |||
$$ \norm{ M_W \wedge J_W }_\text {RMS'} = \sqrt{\frac{\det(\tilde V_W \tilde V_W^\mathsf{T})}{C(n, r + 1)}} $$ | $$ \norm{ M_W \wedge J_W }_\text {RMS'} = \sqrt{\frac{\det(\tilde V_W \tilde V_W^\mathsf{T})}{C(n, r + 1)}} $$ | ||
So that we can basically view the simple badness as the TE complexity of the "pseudo-temperament" formed by adding the JIP to the mapping matrix as if it were another val. | So that we can basically view the simple badness as the TE complexity of the "pseudo-temperament" formed by adding the JIP to the mapping matrix as if it were another val. | ||

In this situation, the simple badness happens to reduce to the [[Interval span|span]] of the comma, up to a constant multiplicative factor, so that the span of any comma can itself be thought of as measuring the complexity relative to the error of the temperament vanishing that comma. | ||
This relationship also holds if TOP is used rather than TE, as the TOP damage associated with tempering out some comma ''n''/''d'' is log(''n''/''d'')/(''nd''), and if we multiply by the complexity ''nd'', we simply get log(''n''/''d'') as our result. | This relationship also holds if TOP is used rather than TE, as the TOP damage associated with tempering out some comma ''n''/''d'' is log(''n''/''d'')/(''nd''), and if we multiply by the complexity ''nd'', we simply get log(''n''/''d'') as our result. | ||

The exponent is chosen such that if we set a cutoff margin for logflat badness, there are still infinite numbers of new temperaments appearing as complexity goes up, at a lower rate which is approximately logarithmic in terms of complexity. | The exponent is chosen such that if we set a cutoff margin for logflat badness, there are still infinite numbers of new temperaments appearing as complexity goes up, at a lower rate which is approximately logarithmic in terms of complexity.{{cn}} | ||
