Answer 1 Stalk analyzed the Receiving process and started organizing the data to prepare the Run Chart to display observed data in time sequence. After identifying the 5 sources of error Slotter‚ Keying‚ Letdown‚ ITR ADJ‚ Putaway‚ we are trying to notice a trend in the Proportion of errors noticed/Total errors observed. Following are the run charts prepared for this exercise Chart 1 Slotter Errors Chart 2 Keying Errors Chart 3 Letdown Errors Chart 4 ITR ADJ Errors Chart 5 Putaway Errors

In pattern recognition‚ the k-Nearest Neighbors algorithm (or k-NN for short) is a non-parametric method used for classification and regression. In both cases‚ the input consists of the k closest training examples in the feature space. The output depends on whether k-NN is used for classification or regression: • In k-NN classification‚ the output is a class membership. An object is classified by a majority vote of its neighbors‚ with the object being assigned to the class most common among its k

Data analysis and data interpretation are closely related‚ but have different meanings. Lets first define the meaning of the word data. Data is defined as factual information that can be used as a basis for reasoning‚ discussion‚ or calculation. There are several different types of data. It can also be defined as information output by a sensing device or organ that includes both useful and irrelevant or redundant information and must be processed to be meaningful. Now that data has been defined
