1.4.2.6.1.

Background and Data

Generation This data set was collected by NIST chemist Radu Mavrodineaunu in the 1970's from an automatic data acquisition system for a filter transmittance experiment. The response variable is transmittance.

The motivation for studying this data set is to show how the underlying autocorrelation structure in a relatively small data set helped the scientist detect problems with his automatic data acquisition system.

Software The analyses used in this case study can be generated using both Dataplot code and R code. The reader can download the data as a text file.
