This is Dataplot data file CUMMING4.DAT Purpose--(This is a derived subset of the original data whose goal was to determine if a difference existed among 5 algorithms). The current purpose is to determine which of 7 factors affects the response for the n = 32 run subset consisting of algorithm 1 (of 5) ratios 1 and 3 (of 3) 1 replicates 1 and 2 (of 3) This will yield a 2**(7-2) fractional factorial design. The design will not be Yates order and may not be of optimal resolution. Purpose--Comparison of 5 Peak Deconvolution Algorithms for Analyzing Am-241 and Am-243 Alpha Spectra Run 1, Ratio 1, Replicate 1, Algorithm 1 Data Source = Anna Berne (EML in NYC) Contact--Zhichao Lin and Elizabeth Cummings (NIST) Number of observations = 360 Number of variables per lines image = 10 Order of variables on a line image -- 1. Response Variable Y = Calculated Ratio of Am241 to Am243 2. Response Variable Y = Relative Bias = 100 * (Ratio - NIST Standard) / (NIST Standard) 3. Response Variable Y = Bias = Ratio - NIST Standard 4. Factor 1 = Ratio ( 2 levels) 5. Factor 2 = Replicate ( 2 levels) 6. Factor 3 = Detector Size ( 2 levels) 7. Factor 4 = Detector Distance ( 2 levels) 8. Factor 5 = Thickness ( 2 levels) 9. Factor 6 = Resolution ( 2 levels) 10. Factor 7 = Counts ( 2 levels) To read this file into Dataplot-- SKIP 50; READ CUMMINS4.DAT Y1 TO Y3 X1 TO X7 Y1 Y2 Y3 X1 X2 X3 X4 X5 X6 X7 Calc. Rel.
