Most people become familiar with probability and
statistics through radios, television,newspapers and
magazines.For example,the following statements
were found in newspapers.
Eating 10 grams(g) of fiber a day reduce the risk
of heart attack by 14%
Thirty minutes (of exercise) two or three times
each week can raise HDLs 10 to 15%
Statisticsis used to analyze the results of

surveys and as a tool in scientific research to
make decisions based on controlled
experiments.
Other uses of statistics include operations
research, quality control, estimation and
prediction.

asthe basis of data analysis are concerned with two

basic types of problems
(1) summarizing, describing, and exploring the data
This problems is covered by descriptive statistics
(2) using sampled data to infer the nature of the

process which produced the data
This problems is covered by inferential statistics.
Statistics plays an important role in the
description of mass phenomena.
Organized and summarized for clear
presentation for ease of communications.
Data may come from studies of populations
or samples
It offers methods to summarize a collection
of data. These methods may be numerical or
graphical, both of which have their own
advantages and disadvantages.
Inferential statistics is used to draw

conclusions about a data set.
Usually this means drawing inferences about
a population from a sample either by
estimating some relationships or by testing
some hypothesis.
A Population is the
set of all possible
states of a random
variable. The size of
the population may A Sample is a subset
be either infinite or of the population; its
finite. size is always finite.

Another important aspect of data analysis is the Data,

which can be of two different types:
qualitative data ex. Sex, color, smell, taste etc.

quantitative data ex. Height, weight, percentage etc.
Qualitative data does not contain quantitative

information.
Qualitative data can be classified into categories.

is based on the normal probability distribution and is used for
judging the significance of several statistical measures, particularly
the mean. (n>30)
z-test is generally used for comparing the mean of a sample to
some hypothesized mean for the population in case of large sample
T test
is based on t-distribution and is considered an appropriate
test for judging the significance of a sample mean or for
judging the significance of difference between the means
of two samples in case of small sample(s) when population
variance is not known (in which case we use variance of
the sample as an estimate of the population variance).
t-test applies only in case of small sample(s)

when population variance is unknown.
Unknown variance

Critical values: statistics books or computer
t-distribution approximately normal for degrees of freedom (df) >30
F test
is based on F-distribution and is used to compare the variance of
the two-independent samples. This test is also used in the context
of analysis of variance (ANOVA) for judging the significance of
more than two sample means at one and the same time.
Test statistic, F, is calculated and compared with its probable value

(to be seen in the F-ratio tables for different degrees of freedom for
greater and smaller variances at specified level of significance) for
accepting or rejecting the null hypothesis.
Anova tables:

errorby subtraction Sserr =SSerr/dferr
Total (N-1)
Finally, you (or the PC) consult tables or otherwise obtain a probability of
obtaining this F value given df for treatment and error.
1: Calculate N, x, x2 for the whole dataset.

2: Find the Correction factor
CF = (x * x) /N
3: Find the total Sum of Squares for the data
= (xi2) CF
4: add up the totals for each treatment in turn (Xt.), then

calculate Treatment Sum of Squares
SStrt = t(Xt.*Xt.)/r - CF
where Xt. = sum of all values within treatment t, and r is
the number of observations that went into that total.

Most people have difficulties in determining

whether a model is linear or non-linear.
Before discussing the issues of linear vs. non-
linear systems, let's have a short look at
some examples, displaying several types of
discrimination lines between two classes:
Non-
linear
linear
Here's the answer: linear models are linear
in the parameters which have to be
estimated, but not necessarily in the
independent variables.
This explains why the middle of the three
figures above shows a linear discrimination
line between the two classes, although the
line is not linear in the sense of a straight
line.
When calculating a regression model, we are

interested in a measure of the usefulness of
the model.
There are several ways to do this, one of
them being the coefficient of determination
(also sometimes called goodness of fit).
The concept behind this coefficient is to
calculate the reduction of the error of
prediction when the information provided by
the x values is included in the calculation.
Thus the coefficient of determination specifies
the amount of sample variation in y explained
by x.
For simple linear regression the coefficient of
determination is simply the square of the
correlation coefficient between Y and X .
Strong negative Strong positive

Linear relationship Linear relationship

also called Pearson's product moment

by
The correlation coefficient may take any value between -1.0 and +1.0.
Assumptions: linear relationship between x and y

both variables must be normally distributed
x and y must be independent of each other

In quality control, there are situations when A
we need to know whether a sample mean lies M
within the confidence limits of the entire P
population. This can be accomplished by L
using t-distribution to determine confidence E
limits for a population mean using a selected
probability.

We will use Excel function TINV( ) to determine the t-distribution.
Ten cans of sliced pineapple were removed at
random from a population of 1000 cans. The
drained weight of the contents were
measured as 410.5, 411.4, 410.4, 412.6,
411.9, 411.5,412.5, 411.4, 411.5, 410.1 g.
Determine the 95% confidence limits for the
entire population.
We will first calculate the average of the ten

data values using the AVERAGE() function.
Next we will determine the standard
deviation of the sample mean using STDEV()
function. Then we will use the following
expression to estimate the lower and upper
limits of population mean
Discussion:
The results show that the 95% confidence lower
and upper limits for the population mean are
410.78 and 411.98, respectively.

Case study : Color Data
A sample of 10 breads is obtained from a

conveyor belt exiting a baking oven. The
breads are analyzed for color by comparing
them with a standard color chart. The values
recorded, in customized color units, are as
follows: 34, 33, 36,37, 31, 32, 38, 33, 34,
and 35. Estimate the mean, variance,
and standard deviation of the population.
We will use the Data Analysis capability of

In such cases, we have a completely

IV
We can test to see whether the treatments had any influence on the
judges scores; in other words, does the mean of each treatment differ?
Case study : Weight of oranges Data

Consider a weight of oranges from three
different suppliers A, B, and C .Five oranges
was random sampling and weighted. The
following weights were obtained:
A B C
150 148 146
151 150 148
152 152 150
153 154 152
154 156 154
For each treatment, 5 samples were weighted by
5 times. Therefore, the design was completely
randomized. Calculate the F value to determine
whether the means of three treatments are
significantly different.
We will use a single factor analysis of variance

available in Excel. We will determine the F
value at probability of 0.95 .
These computations will allow us to determine
if the means between the three different
treatments are significantly different.
First make sure that the Data Analysis...
Command is available under menu item Data.
Step 2 In cells A4 :C8, type the text labels and data values

Step 4 Double click on Anova Single Factor.
The results show that the F value is 0.889. The critical F
values are At the 5% level F = 3.885
This indicates that for the example problem the F value is lower than
the value at the 5% level but not at the 5% level. Thus, we can
say that no significant difference in their mean scores(P<0.05).

When we are interested in evaluating samples A

treatments, analysis of variance for a two- L

This analysis helps in determining if there are
significant differences among the various V
treatments as well as if an significant
differences exist among the judges themselves.

these data can be linearly correlated,
determine the regression coefficient and
predict the off-flavor score at 5 months of

We will use the package Regression available
