welding: Welding data set

Description

The data give the results of an unreplicated experiment for factors affecting welding quality conducted by the National Railway Corporation of Japan (Taguchi and Wu, 1980, cited in Smyth et al., 2001). It is a toy example for heterocedastic models and is also suitable for illustrating fit of overparameterized models.

Usage

data("welding")

Arguments

Format

The data frame includes 16 observations on 10 variables:

Strengh

response variable;

...

nine two-level factors.
