[ Exercise 12 ]
-
It
is a fact that engineers select an appropriate variable and
treat the transformed observations as though they are normally
distributed with a constant variance.

-
Those
methods neither require previous knowledge of how the variables
are distributed nor stipulate availability of the censored
data.

The
procedure for analyzing singly censored data in a replicated
experiment is as follows:
Step 1: Distinguish the experimental results as the uncensored
(complete) data and the censored (incomplete) data.
Step 2: Find the relationship between the two values by performing
regression analysis.
Step 3: Estimate the two variables.
Step 4: Rank the estimated censored data.
Step 5: Find the regression models for response average and
standard deviation for each trial.
Step 6: Identify the factors that significantly affect the
response average and standard deviation.
Step 7: Determine the optimal factor/level combination.

The
derived model extends an earlier concept [1] and helps industrial
managers in determining a feasible number of replenishments.

Experimental
design is used in this method to arrange the design parameters
and noise factors in the orthogonal arrays and to compute
the signal-to-noise (SN) ratio based on the quality loss for
each experimental combination.

-
The
relative importance of each response can be transformed into
a fuzzy number through means of establishing a formal scale
system that can convert linguistic terms into their corresponding
fuzzy numbers and expressing the relative importance of each
response by the linguistic term.

The
Taguchi combines experimental design techniques with quality
loss considerations and minimizes the average quadratic loss.

-
The conventional approach happens to be cumbersome, complicated
and time consuming.

-
The two-step procedure not only identifies those factors that
significantly affect the signal-to-noise (SN) ratio, but also
finds the levels that maximize SN.

Logethetis
(1988) proved that strong non-linearities exist and also recommended
using the B technique.

This
work not only proposes an effective procedure based on the
rank transformation of responses and regression analysis,
but also discusses the singly censored data.

The
following steps describe the procedure:
Step 1: Calculate the normalized decision matrix.
Step 2: Calculate the weighted normalized decision matrix.
Step 3: Determine the ideal and negative-ideal solution.
Step 4: Calculate the separation measures.
Step 5: Calculate the relative closeness to the ideal solution.
Step 6: Rank the preference order.
