A SEQUENTIAL APPROACH TO ANALYZING IRREGULAR MULTIVARIATE INSPECTION DATA

To improve prediction of inspection effectiveness, a methodology for smoothing the irregularities of the inspection data has been developed. It comprises a sequential application of a battery of multivariate techniques, complementing one another in redu..
