This study introduces a new method for estimating upper specifications in non-normally distributed data, even with limited sample sizes. The technique, using Cornish-Fisher expansions, accurately calculates critical values and specifications for particle-size data.

Area of Science:

  • Statistical methods
  • Data analysis

Background:

  • Estimating upper specifications is crucial for quality control and risk assessment.
  • Non-normally distributed data present challenges for traditional statistical methods.
  • Limited data availability often hinders accurate specification estimation.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop and validate a novel method for estimating upper specifications for non-normally distributed data.
  • To demonstrate the method's applicability using particle-size data.
  • To extend the method for calculating critical values in equivalence testing.

Main Methods:

  • Utilized Cornish-Fisher expansions for deriving the estimation method.
  • Applied the method to particle-size datasets for upper specification calculations.

    • Main Results:

    • The proposed method accurately estimates upper specifications for non-normally distributed data.
    • Simulation studies confirmed the reliability of the approximations.
    • The method proved effective in calculating critical values for the Anderson-Hauck test for equivalence.
    • Demonstrated utility in scenarios with limited data.

    Conclusions:

    • The Cornish-Fisher expansion-based method offers a robust approach for upper specification estimation with non-normal data.
    • This method is particularly advantageous when dealing with small sample sizes.
    • The approach is versatile, applicable to both direct specification calculation and critical value determination in statistical tests.
