The p-chart only accommodates "pass"/"fail"-type inspection as determined by one or more go-no go gauges or tests, effectively applying the specifications to the data before they are plotted on the chart. Other types of control charts display the magnitude of the quality characteristic under study, making troubleshooting possible directly from ...
Splitting the observations either side of the median gives two groups of four observations. The median of the first group is the lower or first quartile, and is equal to (0 + 1)/2 = 0.5. The median of the second group is the upper or third quartile, and is equal to (27 + 61)/2 = 44. The smallest and largest observations are 0 and 63.
The degenerate distribution at x 0, where X is certain to take the value x 0. This does not look random, but it satisfies the definition of random variable. This is useful because it puts deterministic variables and random variables in the same formalism. The discrete uniform distribution, where all elements of a finite set are equally likely ...
The median is the "middle" number of the ordered data set. This means that exactly 50% of the elements are below the median and 50% of the elements are greater than the median. The median of this ordered data set is 70°F. The first quartile value (Q 1 or 25th percentile) is the number that marks one quarter of the ordered data set. In other ...
Box plot of the Michelson–Morley experiment, showing several summary statistics.. In descriptive statistics, summary statistics are used to summarize a set of observations, in order to communicate the largest amount of information as simply as possible.
The top chart shows a list of elements with values indicated by height and the median element shown in red. The lower chart shows the same elements with weights as indicated by the width of the boxes. The weighted median is shown in red and is different than the ordinary median. In statistics, a weighted median of a sample is the 50% weighted ...
The X-bar chart is always used in conjunction with a variation chart such as the ¯ and R chart or ¯ and s chart. The R-chart shows sample ranges (difference between the largest and the smallest values in the sample), while the s-chart shows the samples' standard deviation. The R-chart was preferred in times when calculations were performed ...
The median of three vertices in a tree, showing the subtree formed by the union of shortest paths between the vertices. Every tree is a median graph. To see this, observe that in a tree, the union of the three shortest paths between pairs of the three vertices a, b, and c is either itself a path, or a subtree formed by three paths meeting at a single central node with degree three.
