Hybrid Process Capability Analysis
Hybrid process capability analysis combines two or more capability assessment techniques — for example, classical indices (Cp, Cpk) with fuzzy logic, bootstrap inference, or Bayesian estimation — to overcome the limitations of any single approach. By integrating complementary methods, it delivers more robust capability statements for non-normal, asymmetric, or short-run processes where standard indices alone would mislead quality decisions.
