Chapter 3 Analysis of Variance (ANOVA)
Lets recap… • In the previous class… Another way to describe this experiment is as single factor experiment, with 2 level. Factor: mortar formulation Level: modified and unmodified What if more than 2 level involved?
Factor? Level?
Importance of balance design (equal sample size) • The test procedure is relatively insensitive to small departures from the assumption of equality of variances. • The power of the test is maximized
Model adequacy checking • Is done by examination of residuals Outlier- the residual that is very much larger than the other If the underlying error distribution is normal, this plot will resemble a straight line
Frequently the cause of outlier is a mistake in calculations or data coding or copying error. • If this is not the cause, the experimental circumstances surrounding this run must be carefully studied. • If the outlying response is particularly desirable value (low cost, high strength), the outliers may be more informative than the rest of data. • We should careful not to reject an observation outlier without reasonable ground. • A rough check for outliers can be done by examining the standardized residuals. • A residual bigger than 3 or 4 standard deviations from zero is potential outlier.
Residual vs time plot • If the model is adequate, the residuals should be structureless. • This plot helps in detecting correlation between residuals. • Imply the independence assumption-should do proper randomization of experiment • A change in error over time- indicate the skill of experimenter
Residual vs average yi plot • If the model is adequate, the residuals should be structureless. • A defect that occasionally shows up on this plot is nonconstant variance. • The variance of the observations increase as magnitude of the observation increase. (normally cause by measuring instruments) • For equal sample, F test only slightly affected.
Normal probability plot • How to construct? • Arrange the value for x-axis in order (lowest to highest). This new order is j • For normal % probability values (y-axis), use the formula of (j-0.5)/N. • Example: normal probability vs residual plot original data after sorting Lets do it together!
Normal probability plot • How to construct the straight line? draw the line approximately between 25th and 75th percentile point.
