The Mahalanobis Taguchi System is a diagnosis and forecasting method for multivariate data. Mahalanobis distance is a measure based on correlations between the variables and different patterns that can be identified and analyzed with respect to a base or reference group. The Mahalanobis Taguchi System is of interest because of its reported accuracy in forecasting small, correlated data sets. Th...

The Mahalanobis-Taguchi System is a diagnosis and forecasting method for multivariate data. Mahalanobis distance is a measure based on correlations between the variables and different patterns that can be identified and analyzed with respect to a base or reference group. This paper presents a comparison of the Mahalanobis-Taguchi System and a standard statistical technique for defect detection ...

this study is made to find out the variations of the outer body morphology of luciobarbus mystaceus (pallas, 1814) belonging cyprinidae family that lived in tigris river system between january 2015 and december 2015 with geometric morphometric methods depending on gender, age and season. after being caught with fishnet having different meshes and brought to the laboratory, in total 58 (21♀♀, 37...

Image segmentation is the classification of data sets into group of similar data points. This article proposed a method to determine the winner unit by self organizing mapping network. The distance between the input vector and the weight vector has been determined by mahalanobis distance and chooses the unit whose weight vector has the smallest mahalanobis distance from the input vector. The re...

The Mahalanobis-Taguchi System (MTS) is a relatively new collection of methods proposed for diagnosis and forecasting using multivariate data. It consists of two main parts: Part 1, the selection of useful variables in order to reduce the complexity of multi-dimensional systems and part 2, diagnosis and prediction, which are used to predict the abnormal group according to the remaining us...

The Mahalanobis Taguchi System (MTS) is a diagnosis and forecasting method for multivariate data. Mahalanobis distance (MD) is a measure based on correlations between the variables and different patterns that can be identified and analyzed with respect to a base or reference group. MTS is of interest because of its reported accuracy in forecasting small, correlated data sets. This is the type o...

Based on the reasoning expressed by Mahalanobis in his original article, the present article extends the Mahalanobis distance beyond the set of normal distributions. Sufficient conditions for existence and uniqueness are studied, and some properties derived. Since many statistical methods use the Mahalanobis distance as e vehicle, e.g. the method of least squares and the chi-square hypothesis t...

the organizations use all appropriate tools to improve their service to the customers. the detection of especial customers and the forecast of their behavior undoubtedly can play an important role in improvement of service. in this paper, a new statistical method called the mahalanobis taguchi system has been used for this purpose. this method is used for the analysis of real data of an insuran...

A diverse group of coral reef organisms, representing several phyla, possess fluorescent pigments. We investigated the potential of using the characteristic fluorescence emission spectra of these pigments to enable unsupervised, optical classification of coral reef habitats. We compiled a library of characteristic fluorescence spectra through in situ and laboratory measurements from a variety o...
