近年來，由於科技的進步，許多高科技產品像是平板電腦，手機等等,皆很受消費者歡迎，而消費者對於產品的品質要求則更加嚴格，因此提升產品製程的能力是品管上很重要的工作。在實務上，已經發展了很多種方法來評估產品的品質能力，製程能力指標(process capability indices, PCIs)就是其中一種方法。 製程能力指標已經被廣泛地用於評估製程的表現績效以及不斷地提升產品品質及製程能力。當產品的壽命服從Gompertz分配時，望大型的壽命績效指標應該是被考慮的。在逐步型I區間設限下，我們求出壽命績效指標之最大概似估計量並求得其漸近分配。在規格下限已知的情形下，我們使用此估計量發展出一個新的假設檢定程序以判定壽命績效是否達到預定的能力水準。最後，我們用兩個數值實例去說明如何使用本研究所提出的檢定程序。 In recent years, consumers are in the pursuit of more stringent product quality requirements for many high-tech products such as tablet, mobile phones, etc. In practice, many researchers have developed a variety of methods to assess the quality of the product and the method of process capability indices (PCIs) is one of them. Process capability indices had been widely used to evaluate the process performance to the continuous improvement of quality and productivity. When the lifetime of products possesses a Gompertz distribution, the larger-the-better lifetime performance index is considered. The maximum likelihood estimator is used to estimate the lifetime performance index based on the progressive type I interval censored sample. The asymptotic distribution of this estimator is also investigated. We use this estimator to develop the new hypothesis testing algorithmic procedure in the condition of known lower specification limit. Finally, two practical examples are given to illustrate the use of this testing algorithmic procedure to determine whether the process is capable.
