Selecting Optimal Design Condition based on Automobile Ride Satisfaction Using Mahalanobis Taguchi System
Mahalanobis Taguchi-System (MTS) has been used in different diagnostic applications to make quantitative decisions by constructing a multivariate system using data analytic methods without any assumption regarding statistical distribution. MTS performs Taguchi's fractional factorial design based on the Mahahlanobis distance as a performance metric. In this study, MTS used for analyzing automotive ride satisfaction, which measured as a CSR(Customer Satisfaction Rating). The automobile which has a good CSR score treated as a normal group for constructing Mahalanobis space. The results of this research show that two attribute (Impact Hardness and Memory Shake) have a minus gain value and can be removed from further analysis. With the linear regression model, the difference of CSR between using all 6 attributes and just using significant 4 attributes compared.
