Off-Line Quality Control, Parameter Design, and the Taguchi Method

TL;DR: The Ina Tile Company found that increasing the content of lime in the tile formulation from 1% to 5% reduced the tile size variation by a factor of ten as discussed by the authors, which was a breakthrough for the tile industry.

An Analysis for Unreplicated Fractional Factorials

TL;DR: A more formal analysis is presented here, which may be used to supplement such plots and hence to facilitate the use of these unreplicated experimental arrangements.
