Experimental DataExperimental Data Suppose we wish to make some estimates on time to fail

for a new power supply. 40 units are randomly selected and tested to failure. Failure times are recorded follow:

HistogramHistogram Perhaps the most useful method,

histograms give the analyst a feel for the distribution from which the data was obtained.

Count observations within a set of ranges Average 5 observations per interval class

HistogramHistogram

Intervals & Class marks can alter the histogram too many intervals leaves too many voids too few intervals doesn’t give a good picture

Rule of Thumb # Intervals = n/5 Sturges’ Rule

k = [1 + log2n] = [1 + 3.322 log10n]

Problem with empirical is we may simply not have enough data

For small data sets, analysts often like to provide a rough graphical measure of how data is dispersed

An AsideAn Aside

Recall that for the exponential distribution = 1/

s2 = 1/2

If E[ X ] = and E [s2 ] = s2, then

1/ = 19.1or

1/2 = 302.76

s2 = 302.76X 1.19
