taguchiDesign

Source: R/5.2_Taguchi_designs_Classes.R
taguchiDesign.c.Rd

An R6 class representing a Taguchi experimental design.

Public fields

name

A character string specifying the name of the design. Default is NULL.

factors

A list of factors included in the Taguchi design. Each factor is typically an instance of the taguchiFactor class.

design

A `data.frame` representing the design matrix of the experiment. This includes the levels of each factor for every run of the experiment. Default is an empty data.frame.

designType

A character string specifying the type of Taguchi design used. Default is NULL.

replic

A `data.frame` containing the replication information for the design. Default is an empty data.frame.

response

A `data.frame` storing the response values collected from the experiment. Default is an empty data.frame.

Type

A `data.frame` specifying the type of responses or factors involved in the design. Default is an empty data.frame.

block

A `data.frame` indicating any blocking factors used in the design. Default is an empty data.frame.

runOrder

A `data.frame` detailing the order in which the experimental runs were conducted. Default is an empty data.frame.

standardOrder

A `data.frame` detailing the standard order of the experimental runs. Default is an empty data.frame.

desireVal

A list storing desired values for responses in the experiment. Default is an empty list.

desirability

A list storing desirability functions used to evaluate the outcomes of the experiment. Default is an empty list.

fits

A `data.frame` containing model fits or other statistical summaries from the analysis of the experimental data. Default is an empty data.frame.

Method effectPlot()

Plots the effects of factors on the response variables.

Usage

taguchiDesign.c$effectPlot(
  factors,
  fun = mean,
  response = NULL,
  points = FALSE,
  l.col,
  p.col,
  ld.col,
  lty,
  xlab,
  ylab,
  main,
  ylim,
  pch
)

Arguments

factors

Factors to be plotted.

fun

Function applied to the response variables (e.g., mean).

response

Optional; specifies which response variables to plot.

points

Logical; if TRUE, plots data points.

l.col

A color for the lines.

p.col

A color for the points.

ld.col

A color for the dashed line.

lty

Line type for plotting.

xlab

Label for the x-axis.

ylab

Label for the y-axis.

main

Main title for the plot.

ylim

Limits for the y-axis.

pch

The symbol for plotting points.

Examples

tdo = taguchiDesign("L9_3")
tdo$.response(rnorm(9))
tdo$effectPlot(points = TRUE, pch = 16, lty = 3)

Method identity()
