Objectives: This paper aims to serve as a useful guide for sample size determination for various correlation analyses that are based on effect sizes and confidence interval width. Materials and Methods: Sample size determinations are calculated for Pearson's correlation, Spearman's rank correlation, and Kendall's Tau-b correlation. Examples of sample size statements and their justification are also included. Results: Using the same effect sizes, there are differences between the sample size determination of the 3 statistical tests. Based on an empirical calculation, a minimum sample size of 149 is usually adequate for performing both parametric and non-parametric correlation analysis to determine at least a moderate to an excellent degree of correlation with acceptable confidence interval width. Conclusions: Determining data assumption(s) is one of the challenges to offering a valid technique to estimate the required sample size for correlation analyses. Sample size tables are provided and these will help researchers to estimate a minimum sample size requirement based on correlation analyses.

A reduced machining time and increased accuracy for the sculptured surface are very important when producing complicated parts. The step-size and tool-path interval are essential components in high speed and high resolution machining. If they are small, the machining time will increase, whereas if they are large, rough surfaces will be caused. In particular, the machining time, which is key in high speed machining, is affected by the tool-path interval more than the step-size. The conventional method for calculating the tool=path interval is to select a small parametric increment of a small increment based on the curvature of the surface. However, this approach also has limitations. The first is that the tool-path interval can not be calculated precisely. The second is that a separate tool-path interval needs to be calculated in each of the three cases. The third is that the conversion from Cartesian domain to parametric domain or vice versa must be necessary. Accordingly, the current study proposes a new tool-path interval algorithm that do not involve a curvature and that is not necessary for any conversion and a variable step-size algorithm for NURBS.

Most useful statistical techniques in six sigma DMAIC are hypothesis testing and interval estimation. So this paper reviews and derives sample size formula by considering significance level, power of detectability and effect difference. The quality practioners can effectively interpret the practical and statistical significance with the rational sample sizing.

This study addressed an ill-understood issue of a price response model and a monopolistic price interval of fashion goods. The concept of monopolistic price interval introduced by Gutenberg has been rarely applied to the fashion goods, which is known as price sensitive goods. Thus, this study examined the price insensitive zone of the blue jean. The data of 268 respondents were analyzed using Choice-based Conjoint (CBC) analysis and t-test. Considering brand consideration set as a price determinant, we found the presence of monopolistic price interval of the jean. The results obtained from the CBC analysis showed that the bigger the size of brand consideration set, the shorter the monopolistic interval. This implied that the consumer who had a small brand consideration set was more likely to have a longer monopolistic price interval than the one who had a large brand consideration set, since the consumer with a small consideration set tended to value brand itself more than price. Although significant monopolistic price intervals were shown only for the three jean brands out of the seven, to reduce the size of brand consideration set and to increase brand loyalty were found important in maximizing firms'financial profits.

The difference of two independent binomial proportions is frequently of interest in biomedical research. The interval estimation may be an important tool for the inferential problem. Many confidence intervals have been proposed. They can be classified into the class of exact confidence intervals or the class of approximate confidence intervals. Ore may prefer exact confidence interval s in that they guarantee the minimum coverage probability greater than the nominal confidence level. However, someone, for example Agresti and Coull (1998) claims that "approximation is better than exact." It seems that when sample size is large, the approximate interval is more preferable to the exact interval. However, the choice is not clear when sample, size is small. In this note, an exact confidence and an approximate confidence interval, which were recommended by Santner et al. (2007) and Lee (2006b), respectively, are compared in terms of the coverage probability and the expected length.

연구는 국도 단속류 구간에서 DSRC로 수집한 개별차량 통행시간의 대푯값 산정 시 신뢰도를 높이는 최적 수집 간격을 결정하는데 목적이 있다. 이를 위하여, 단속류 구간에서 수집되는 가장 대표적인 개별차량 통행시간의 분포인 양봉형태의 비대칭 분포를 따르는 수집데이터를 활용하고 개별차량 통행시간의 수집 간격 크기를 변화시켜 MSE(Mean Square Error)를 추정함으로 오차가 최소가 되는 최적 수집 간격 크기를 결정한다. MSE 산정을 위한 편의 추정식은 비대칭 분포에서도 활용이 가능한 t-분포의 최대 추정 오차식을 활용하였다. 최적 수집 간격 분석을 위한 데이터 수집 간격은 단속류 구간에서 신호정지로 데이터 수집이 정상적으로 결측 되는 1-2분 수집 간격은 제외하고, 3분 이상의 수집 간격만을 대상으로 하였다. 데이터 수집 시 결측을 발생시키는 수집 간격은 결측 데이터 보정처리 과정에서 또 다른 오차를 유발하게 되어 배제하였다. 분석결과 MSE가 최소가 되는 최적 수집 간격은 3-5분이며, 통행시간 증가 시 최적 수집 간격은 3분으로 짧아짐을 확인하였다. 시스템 운영의 효율성과 통행시간 대푯값 산정의 신뢰도 향상을 모두 고려할 때 기본 수집 간격은 기존과 같이 5분으로 운영하고, 정체 시는 3분으로 수집 간격을 줄여 운영하는 것이 효과적일 것으로 사료된다.

Variable sampling Interval (VSI) control charts vary the sampling interval according to value of the control statistic while the sample size is fixed. It is known that control charts with 2-state VSI scheme, which uses only two sampling intervals, give good statistical properties. Variable sample size (VSS) control charts vary the sample size according to value of the control statistic while the sampling interval is fixed. In the VSS scheme no optimal results are known for the number of sample sizes. It is also known that the variable sampling rate (VSR) $\bar{X}$ control chart with 2-state VSS and 2-state VSI scheme leads to large improvements In performance over the fixed sampling rate (FSR) $\bar{X}$ chart, but the optimal number of states for sample size Is not known. In this paper, the VSR Χ charts with multi-state VSS and 2-state VSI scheme are designed and compared to 2-state VSS and 2-state VSI scheme. The multi-state VSS scheme is considered to, achieve an additional improvement by switching from the 2-state VSS scheme. On the other hand, the multi-state VSI scheme is not considered because the 2-state scheme is known to be optimal. The 3-state VSS scheme improves substantially the sensitivity of the $\bar{X}$ chart especially for small and moderate mean shifts.

본 논문에서는 군집 구간중도절단된 자료에서 생존시간이 군집의 크기에 의존할 때 주변모형으로부터 가중 추정 방법과 군집 내 재추출 방법을 써서 모수를 추정하고 그 추정량의 점근적 성질을 살펴보았다. 모의실험을 통해 추정량의 편향의 크기와 신뢰구간의 포함율 측면에서 볼 때 제안한 두 추정 방법이 생존시간과 군집의 크기 간의 종속 관계를 무시한 방법보다 우수한 것으로 나타났다. 제안한 추정 방법을 림프성 사상충 자료에 적용한 결과에 따르면 서로 다른 두 치료방법이 유의하게 다르지 않았으며 나이 효과도 매우 유의하지 않은 것으로 나타났다.
