Descriptive Statistics for Textile Property Data
topic
Textile property data summary statistics include arithmetic mean, median, mode, geometric mean for skewed distributions, standard deviation, coefficient of variation, range, inter-quartile range, and percentile values, with graphical summary through histograms, box plots, and normal probability plots that reveal distribution shape, outliers, and departures from normality in yarn, fibre, and fabric measurement datasets.
Role
Provides the foundational numerical summaries and visual representations that characterise the central tendency, dispersion, and distributional shape of textile property measurements, enabling comparison of material lots, assessment of process consistency, and identification of outliers requiring investigation before inferential statistical analysis.
