摘要
The method of generalized confidence intervals is proposed as an alternative method for constructing confidence intervals for process capability indices under the one-way random model for balanced as well as unbalanced data. The generalized lower confidence limits and the coverage probabilities for three commonly used capability indices were studied via simulation, separately for balanced and unbalanced cases. Simulation results showed that the generalized confidence interval procedure is quite satisfactory both in the balanced and unbalanced cases. Examples are provided to illustrate the results.
