9 Sampling from a Bernoulli Distribution I x Ber(p) (p: the probability of success) x 1,..., x n Ber(p) p(x) = { p, x = 1 (1 p), x = 0 n x = x i B(n, p) i=1 E( x) = p, Var( x) = p(1 p) n

10 Sampling from a Poisson Distribution I x 1,..., x m P(λ) x = n x i P(nλ) i=1 E( x) = λ, Var( x) = λ n Linear combinations of Poisson r.v. are used in quality engineering work x i i.i.d P(λ i ), i = 1,..., m, {a i } : constants m different types of defects The distribution of L = m i=1 a i x i is not Poission unless all a i =1

11 Point Estimation of Process Parameters I Statistical quality control: the probability distribution is used to describe or model some critical-to-quality( 關 鍵 質 量 要 素 ) control The parameters of the probability distributions are generally unknown A point estimator: a statistic that produces a single numerical value as the estimate of the unknown parameter Distribution Population parameter sample estimate N (µ, σ 2 ) µ x N (µ, σ 2 ) σ 2 s 2 P(λ) λ x B(n, p) p (n: fixed) x

12 Point Estimation of Process Parameters II Properties Important properties are required of good point estimators: 1. Unbiased: E(ˆθ) = θ 2. Minimum variance E( x) = µ Var(s 2 ) = σ 2 E(s) = c 4 σ = ( ) 1/2 ( ) 2 Γ(n/2) n 1 Γ((n 2)/2) σ E s c 4 = σ

13 Point Estimation of Process Parameters III Range method: to estimate the standard deviation x 1..., x n N (µ, σ 2 ) The range sample: R = max 1 i n (x i) min 1 i n (x i) = xmax x min The relative range: W = R σ E(W ) = d 2 (d 2 : Appendix Table VI (2 n 25)) ˆσ = R d 2

14 Statistical Inference for a Single Sample I Techniques of statistical inference: parameter estimation hypothesis testing Statistical hypothesis: a statement about the values of the parameters of a probability distribution Testing a hypothesis Null hypothesis (H 0 ) and alternative hypothesis (H 1 ) Testing statistics Type of errors Critical region (or rejection region) Reject of fail to reject the H 0 Confidence interval

15 Statistical Inference for a Single Sample II Type of errors Hypothesis H 0 is true H 1 is true Fail to reject H 0 Correct Decision Type II error (β) Reject H 0 Type I error (α) Correct Decision (1 β=power) α = P{type I error} = P{reject H 0 H 0 is true} (producer s risk) β = P{type II error} = P{fail to rejecth 0 H 0 is false} (consumer s risk) Power = 1 β = P{reject H 0 H 0 is false}
