Statistics, lessons learned

If the pharmaceutical industry adopted the lessons learned in other branches (e.g., aircraft industry, automotive industry) it could realize an increased efficiency in the qualification and validation processes. To this end effort should be made to investigate statistical process control (SPC), house of quality, Deming circuits, and so on. [Pg.481]

The information gathered on transportation incidents has long-term value in addition to the immediate lessons learned. For example, this information may be useful for monitoring performance over time. It can be used to build up a database on transportation incidents. Finally, and most importantly, such information can provide statistical data for transportation risk assessments and improvement efforts. Trend analysis of causes of transportation incidents is vital to a management system that addresses major problems and sets priorities for risk reduction. This element should be part of each supply chain partner s transportation risk management. These risk reduction strategies are discussed in detail in Chapter 7. [Pg.23]

First, collect the input documents and reference resources. The primary input documents include an analytical tree and/or block diagram, drawings, and narrative descriptions of the system. The most important resources are a data base, lessons learned file, historical data, and/or other source(s) of failure rates or other reliability statistics. The preliminary hazard list (PHL), preliminary hazard analysis (PHA) and any other hazard analyses should also be available. [Pg.157]

We report the user experiences and lessons learned from the experiment with respect to our axes of evaluation Student-instructor communication. Interface integration, and Gesture commands. Due to the small number of participants and high variability in the data, we focus here on qualitative rather than statistical analysis of the collected data. [Pg.24]

The obvious lesson to be taken away from this amusing example is that how well a net learns the desired associations depends almost entirely on how well the database of facts is defined. Just as Monte Carlo simulations in statistical mechanics may fall short of intended results if they are forced to rely upon poorly coded random number generators, so do backpropagating nets typically fail to ac hieve expected re.sults if the facts they are trained on are statistically corrupt. [Pg.547]

In the early middle school years, your child will be expected to master the basics of mathematics— addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division. Typically, the advanced middle school child will also have a basic knowledge of geometry and an understanding of charts and graphs. Depending on your child s interest level and ability, you may delve into some of the advanced math concepts, such as algebra and statistics. Please go to the mathematics section of this book to find out more about learning at home lessons, practice questions and answer key, and activities to do in and around the home are included. [Pg.21]

Statistics is not concerned with gross errors. In fact, the science to treat such mistakes has yet to appear. Little can be done, other than learn the lesson and pay more attention next time. Everyone makes mistakes. The conscientious researcher should strive to do everything possible to avoid committing them. [Pg.11]

The HSE statistics on page 8 revealed that the majority of major accidents in school occur in games and physical education activities 19.8 per cent, 44.5 per cent in the playground and 3.8 per cent on the school field. I believe there is much to learn from the accidents, experiences and mistakes of others. Two case reports of accidents that occurred in primary physical edncation lessons will be examined in detail to identify key issues which determined or refuted negligence. In doing this I recognise the importance of reality and how it can be used to raise teachers awareness and inform future practice. [Pg.88]

It is acknowledged that because of the small sample size the results of the analysis have low statistical significance, and therefore care needs to be taken in using these results to generalise for all control system failures. Even so, there are many useful lessons to be learned from summaries of incidents such as these. [Pg.280]
