Available experimental data on the neutron cross sections are analyzed on the basis of the unrecognized error-estimation method (UEEM) ;
Estimated uncertainties are compared with the ENDF/A-VII and JENDL-4 evaluations;
Main contradictions between the evaluated uncertainties are noted.

A minimized functional for a set of experimental data Fi can be written as
where ωij = ωiδij + Sij is the weighting function that includes the statistical and systematic
uncertainties, is the approximating function that depends from the corresponding parameters α, β and so on. Uncertainties of parameters are defined by the matrix
and uncertainties of the approximating function are defined by the matrix
