摘要

With the increased awareness of statistical methods in industry today, many non-statisticians are implementing statistical studies and conducting statistically designed experiments (DOEs). With this increased use of DOEs by non-statisticians in applied settings, there is a need for more graphical methodologies to support both analysis and interpretations of DOE results. In particular, there is a critical need for user-friendly means to investigate outlier effects of noise and active background variables in unreplicated DOEs. This article presents a profoundly simple, yet effective, methodology to identify outliers in unreplicated 2(k) and 2(k-p) factorial designs that integrates well-established, confirmatory statistical techniques with a simple graphical, exploratory tool.
