Method for analyzing the performance of multiple test instruments measuring the same type of part

Abstract:

A method for operating a data processing system to analyze data sets for groupings and a computer readable medium having instructions to execute that method are disclosed. The method includes causing the data processing system to receive a plurality of data sets, each data set including a plurality of values characterized by a statistical distribution and a label. The method also includes causing the data processing system to compute a plurality of statistical parameters for each of the plurality of data sets, to generate a data set vector having components equal to the plurality of statistical parameters for each of the plurality of data sets, to assign each data set to a cluster based on the data set vectors using a clustering algorithm, and to generate a display of the statistical distributions as a function of the labels in which the statistical distributions belonging to the same cluster are grouped together.
