BAYESIAN INFERENCE FOR TESTING PROCESS YIELD OF THEPOLYNOMIAL PROFILES

Abstract
Recently, profile analysis has become an important issue on the quality management topic. However, most studies are focused on monitoring the profiles. When the process is stable, study on assessing the process performance is scarce. Therefore, this study adopts the hierarchical linear model to describe the profiles and uses Bayesian inference to derive the posterior distribution of the overall process yield index. This can test whether the process yield meets the quality requirement. This will help the manager make reliable decisions on quality management. Keywords - Bayesian; Yield
