สรุป	Bayesian Process Capability Analysis integrates Bayesian inference with classical capability indices (Cp, Cpk, Cpm) to estimate how well a production process meets specification limits. Rather than relying solely on observed sample data, it incorporates prior knowledge about process parameters — yielding more stable and credible estimates of process capability, especially under small sample sizes common in manufacturing and quality engineering.	Six Sigma DMAIC is a data-driven, five-phase process improvement methodology — Define, Measure, Analyze, Improve, and Control — used to reduce defects and process variation to fewer than 3.4 defects per million opportunities. Originating at Motorola in the 1980s and systematized by practitioners including Pyzdek and Keller, it is widely adopted in manufacturing, healthcare, finance, and service industries seeking sustained quality gains.
