So what do they teach you in LSS school Computer generated analysis and design A language only a few can understand Statistics! Statistics! Statistics! 4-6 months to get results 30 days for the rebound
How many understand the following? • Fractional Factorial Design • Factors: 8 Resolution: IV • Runs: 67 Replicates: 2 Fraction: 1/8 • Blocks: 1 Center pts (total): 3 • Design Generators: F = ABC, G = ABD, H = BCDE
Dr. George Box’s analysis Typical LSS courses teach to What is typically needed
What if we taught statistical based process improvement to the 95% that need it and don’t get it?
Un-geeking the teaching process • Hypothesis theory • Gauge R and R • Probability theory • Capability Analysis • Design of Experiments
Hypothesis Theory – Un-Geeking What is an Alpha error? Rejection of the null hypothesis when the null hypothesis is true. What is a Beta error? Failure to reject the null hypothesis when the null hypothesis is false.
What the jury found guilty Not guilty He did it What really happened He did not do it
Alpha vs. Beta Errors Power Beta Error Alpha Error
Probability Theory – Multiplication principle P(A and B) = P(A) X P(B/A) Ugly!
Probability of a pair of kingsP(K and K) = P(first King) x P(second King given the first King) =.5 % or 5 out of a thousand
So what to do with the process? Nothing!
Probability of drawing three kingsP(K and K) = P(first King) x P(second King given the first King) x P(third King given the first two)= .02% or 2 out of a 10,000
Probability of drawing four kingsP(K-K-K-K) = P(first King) x P(second King given the first King) x P(third King given the first two) x P(fourth given the first three)= .0000036 or 3.6 PPM
What is easier to learn P(K-K-K-K) = P(first King) x P(second King given the first King) x P(third King given the first two) x P(fourth given the first three)= .0000036 or 3.6 PPM or
Design of Experiments What if we could all learn the basics of a 2 level – 3 factor DOE? What if interaction effect was understood by everyone?
Reverse hand experiment (or the solution may not be obvious and it may hurt)
A very simple but effective DOE Bowl Break Bowl wrinkle
The basics of a 2 level – 3 factor DOE Breaks Bowl Wrinkle Deck Wrinkles Possible sweet spot
Probability theory/Capability Analysis Probability Theory Hypothesis/Design of Experiments Hypothesis/Probability Theory
Finally Probability of you beating my 4 kings : .0000005 or .5 PPM
