ss.lfa: Loss Function Analysis

Description

This function performs a Quality Loss Function Analysis, based in the Taguchi Loss Function for "Nominal-the-Best" characteristics.

Usage

ss.lfa(
  lfa.data,
  lfa.ctq,
  lfa.Delta,
  lfa.Y0,
  lfa.L0,
  lfa.size = NA,
  lfa.output = "both",
  lfa.sub = "Six Sigma Project"
)

Value

lfa.k

Constant k for the loss function

lfa,lf

Expression with the loss function

lfa.MSD

Mean Squared Differences from the target

lfa.avLoss

Average Loss per unit of the process

lfa.Loss

Total Loss of the process (if a size is provided)

Arguments

lfa.data

Data frame with the sample to get the average loss.

lfa.ctq

Name of the field in the data frame containing the data.

lfa.Delta

Tolerance of the process.

lfa.Y0

Target of the process (see note).

lfa.L0

Cost of poor quality at tolerance limit.

lfa.size

Size of the production, batch, etc. to calculate the total loss in a group (span, batch, period, ...)

lfa.output

Type of output (see details).

lfa.sub

Subtitle for the graphic output.
