报告摘要】:Response surface methodology is an effective tool for improving an overall manufacture process where quality requirements are fulfilled. This work proposes a double-robust Bayesian approach that can simultaneously cope with the variable selection, model form uncertainty, and non-normality for quality prediction. Double robust is achieved by specifying the class of spherically symmetric distributions for the errors and accounting for model form uncertainty through Bayesian model averaging. We propose a closed-form marginal posterior distribution of each candidate model, which is not only free of the error distributions (other than spherical symmetry), but also is easily computed in standard software. In addition, a special prior is specified for the model space to maintain the hierarchical relationships among input variables. The proposed Bayesian method has the properties of variable selection consistency and prediction consistency. Numerical results show that the proposed Bayesian method is shown to achieve results superior to those of the existing established methods in terms of prediction and variable selection in linear models under different types of error distributions.
