Abstract: An apparatus comprises a phase modulator having a first input port to receive a radiation and having a first output port to provide a first signal toward a device under test (DUT), wherein the phase modulator is configured to generate the first signal by performing phase modulation on the radiation received at the first input port; an intensity modulator having a second input port to receive the radiation and having a second output port to provide a second signal toward the DUT, wherein the intensity modulator is configured to generate the second signal by performing intensity modulation on the radiation received at the second input port; and a transfer function analyzer configured to determine a transfer function of the DUT based on the first signal and the second signal.

Abstract: A method and system for determining attribute score levels from an assessment are disclosed. An assessment includes items each testing for at least one attribute. A first distribution is generated having a response propensity represented by a highest level of execution for each attribute tested by the item. An item threshold is determined for at least one score for the first distribution. Each item threshold corresponds to a level of execution corresponding to the score for which the item threshold is determined. For each attribute tested by the item, a second distribution is generated having a response propensity represented by a lowest level of execution for the attribute and the highest level of execution for all other attributes tested by the item. A mean parameter is determined for the second distribution. An attribute score level is determined for the scores based on the item thresholds and the mean parameters.
