The Fabric Data
Description
The data are 32 observations on faults in rolls of fabric
Usage
data(fabric)
Format
A data frame with 32 observations on the following 3 variables.
- leng
the length of the roll : a numeric vector
- y
the number of faults in the roll of fabric : a discrete vector
- x
the log of the length of the roll : a numeric vector
Details
The data are 32 observations on faults in rolls of fabric taken from Hinde (1982) who used the EM algorithm to fit a Poisson-normal model. The response variable is the number of faults in the roll of fabric and the explanatory variable is the log of the length of the roll.
