Prof. Jeh-Nan Pan received the Quality Award for the fourth time
Tainan, TAIWAN, Oct. 29th
Prof. Jeh-Nan Pan (潘浙楠), the Vice Dean of the NCKU College of Management and Professor of Statistics Department, was honored with the Quality Award of Year 2009 from Chinese Society for Quality with his paper entitled “A Comparative Study on Evaluating Air Quality of Taiwan Using Various Multivariate Process Capability Indices”. This is his fourth time to receive the same award. He will be conferred with this award at 3:30 pm, November 7th on GIS NTU Convention Center, Taipei, Taiwan.
Global ecosystems in the advent of high-technology development with the problems of the air, water and land pollution such as greenhouse effect, human respiratory system damage, plants damage led to the globalization crisis. In order to further protect the environmental ecosystem and to achieve global sustainability, the governments around the world start to establish the regulations stipulated by environmental protection agency of each country. Therefore, how to regulate the environmental performance becomes an important research issue now.
The multivariate process capability index established by Niverthi and Dey in 2000 is based on the assumption of normality. However, the air pollution data may not follow the normal distribution. In Prof. Pan (潘浙楠)’s study, he provided Revised Niverthi-Dey (RND) index with using percentile estimation and Revised Taguchi’s quadratic loss function; and then indicated the results of comparative and evaluative study in air quality capability by using the concept of coverage probability with various multivariate process capability indices. Finally, RND index can reflect the air quality capability much more precisely to indicate the real situation of air pollution in Taiwan.
