Abstract

Taguchi methods are currently attracting much attention, and certain cavalier interpretations of mean squares in saturated fractional designs have recevied criticism. After two examples illustrating the problem, some procedures are tentatively proposed for improving such analyses, but there is scope for refining these methods, and for research into the general problems of using designs with no independent estimate of experimental error.
