National Tsing Hua University
(鄭少為, 清華大學/統計所)
The course will be given on the basis of 3 hours a week (Monday, 2:20~5:20 PM) in 綜合三館 room 834. The materials for teaching will be regularly posted on the course website (http://www.stat.nthu.edu.tw/~swcheng/Teaching/stat5550/).
This is an advanced course on design and analysis of experiments. Various methodologies that use the technique of DOE (Design Of Experiment) to improve quality will be introduced. In this course, we will cover the following topics:
three-level regular designs
design and analysis of experiments at more than two levels
orthogonal arrays and analysis of experiments with complex aliasing
response surface methodology
robust parameter design
There will be assignments for each topics. You are free to discuss the assignment questions with your classmates, but you must write up your answers individually. You CANNOT turn answers in as a group or simply reproduce a classmate's write up. All homework must be handed in before the end of class on the day it is due.
