Development and Analysis of a Modified Screening Procedure to Increase Acceptable Product.
Abstract
Much work has been done on screening procedures under the assumption of a bivariate normal distribution. However, very little effort has been expended on data which are from a truncated bivariate normal distribution. Methods are developed for a screening procedure to increase acceptable product from a truncated distribution. An acceptance criterion on a linear combination of the largest order statistics from a truncated normal population with a given truncation point is discussed. This paper also uses the approximate distribution of the sample correlation coefficient in random samples of any size drawn from a singly truncated bivariate normal distribution to obtain a lower confidence limit on the population correlation coefficient sigma. The screening procedure discussed here is based on knowledge of the truncation point, the sample size and the lower confidence limit for sigma. (Author)
