The Taguchi loss function
Abstract
Taguchi defines quality in a negative manner as “the loss imparted to society from the time the product is shipped”. Explains the concept and the approach to quality improvement that arises. This approach involves statistical process control and can be daunting but the paper stresses and makes clear the underlying conceptual framework of a methodology for quality improvement and process robustness.
