iii. Describe the way Minitab allows for repetitions of the experiment, describe how it creates the experiment matrix based on the repetition types? Repetition of experiment is the measurements on the same item produced under a given set of conditions. If you have three factors with two levels each and you test all combinations of factor levels (full factorial design), one replicate of the entire design would have 8 runs (2 3 ). You can choose to do the design one time or have multiple repetitions with same levels iv. Describe the way Minitab allows for repetitions of the centerpoint, describe how it creates the experiment matrix based on the repetition types? a) When all factors are numeric and the design does not have blocks, Minitab adds the specified number of center points to the design. When it has blocks, Minitab adds the specified number of center points to each block. b) When all the factors in a design are text, center points cannot be added. c) When a combination of numeric and text factors is present and there is no true center to the design. Here when the center does not have blocks, Minitab adds the specified number of center points for each combination of the levels of the text factors. In total, for X text factors, Minitab adds 2X times as many center points. When the center has blocks, Minitab adds the specified number of center points for each combination of the levels of the text factors to each block. In each block, for X text factors, Minitab adds 2X times as many center points. v. When would you use the Optimizer in Minitab, and what does it provide for an output? (List the single most important output, no formulas please) vi. What is the meaning of the regression equation in Minitab (no formulas required)? Regression generates an equation that describes the relationship between one or more predictor variables and the response variable. Linear regression usually uses the ordinary least squares estimation method which derives the equation by minimizing the sum of the squared residuals. vii. What is the meaning of the fit in Minitab (no formulas required)? After responses and a model can be fit to the data means to generate graphs to assess the effects. The results from the fitted model and graphs determine which of the factors are important. viii. How does Minitab compute predicted values (in Mean and S/N) in the Taguchi analysis (describe how it does, no formulas or examples), and how do you use the data provided from the predicted values for analyzing the experiment?
ix. What is the Minitab maximum P-Value for a factor to be significant in the analysis of Coefficient P = 67% x. What is the Minitab maximum P-Value for a factor to be significant in the ANOVA analysis P = 0.05 xi. What is the recommended Minitab minimum for R-sq (R squared) after the ANOVA analys 95% xii. What is the purpose for R-sq (pred) = R squared predicted - after the ANOVA analysis Predictive R 2 helps to determine how well the model predicts responses for new observations. xiii. What is the difference between R-sq (R squared) and R –sq (adj = adjusted) R 2 adjusted is the percentage of response variable variation explained by its relationship with predictor variables, adjusted for the number of predictors in the model. Adjustment is important because the R 2 for any model will always increase when a new term is added. A model with more terms seems to have a better fit because it has more terms.
