Using EM Algorithm to identify defective parts per million on shifting production process

The objective of this project is to determine whether utilizing an EM Algorithm to fit a Gaussian mixed model distribution model provides needed accuracy in identifying the number of defective parts per million when the overall population is made up of multiple independent runs or lots. The other o...
