Comparison among true values of Ji, i + 1 (circle symbol), reconstructed Ji,i+1 (cross symbol), and predicted Ji,i+1 (triangle symbol) from perturbation analysis under the linear approximation when (a) N = 50 and Ji, i + 1 = 1, (b) N = 100 and Ji, i + 1 = 1, (c) N = 50 and random Ji, i + 1 ∈ [0.9, 1.1], and (d) N = 100 and random Ji, i + 1 ∈ [0.9, 1.1]. The reconstruction starts with a pair of C1, n truncated.
