A robust approach should be considered when estimating regression coefficients in multi-response problems. Many models are derived from the least squares method. Because the presence of outlier data is unavoidable in most real cases and because the least squares method is sensitive to these...

In this paper, the main idea is to compute the robust regression model, derived by experimentation, in order to achieve a model with minimum effects of outliers and fixed variation among different experimental runs. Both outliers and nonequality of residual variation can affect the response...

Offering warranty for a second-hand item stimulates the sales of the item, but at the same time, it accumulates additional warranty servicing cost. This additional cost can be reduced through actions that improve the reliability of the item, such as overhaul and upgrade. An upgrade action brings...
