Kruskal Wallis Test with SigmaXL
What is a Kruskal Wallis Test with SigmaXL The Kruskal Wallis test with SigmaXL is a statistical hypothesis used test to compare the medians among more than two groups. Null Hypothesis (H0): η1 = η2 = … = ηk Alternative Hypothesis (Ha): at least one of the medians is different from others.Where: ηi is the…

One Sample t Test What is a t Test? In statistics, a t test is a hypothesis test in which the test statistic follows a Student’s t distribution if the null hypothesis is true. We apply a one sample t test when the population variance (σ) is unknown and we use the sample standard deviation…

What is Kruskal–Wallis One-Way Analysis of Variance? The Kruskal Wallis one-way analysis of variance is a statistical hypothesis test to compare the medians among more than two groups. Null Hypothesis (H0): η1 = η2 = … = ηk Alternative Hypothesis (Ha): at least one of the medians is different from others. Where: ni is the…
Read MoreP Chart with SigmaXL
What is a P Chart? The P chart plots the percentage of defectives in one subgroup as a data point. It considers the situation when the subgroup size of inspected units is not constant. The underlying distribution of the P-chart is binomial distribution. Use SigmaXL to Plot a P Chart Data File: “P” tab in…

What is a U Chart with SigmaXL? The U chart with SigmaXL is a type of control chart used to monitor discrete (count) data where the sample size is greater than one, typically the average number of defects per unit. Defect vs. Defective Remember the difference between defect and defective? A defect of a unit…

What Are Fractional Factorial Experiments? In simple terms, a fractional factorial experiment is a subset of a full factorial experiment. Fractional factorials use fewer treatment combinations and runs Fractional factorials are less able to determine effects because of fewer degrees of freedom available to evaluate higher order interactions Fractional factorials can be used to screen…

Full Factorial DOE In a full factorial experiment, all of the possible combinations of factors and levels are created and tested. For example, for two-level design (i.e.each factor has two levels) with k factors, there are 2k possible scenarios or treatments. Two factors, each with two levels, we have 22 = 4 treatments Three factors, each…
