Select Optimal DesignDistance-Based Method - Distance Measures |
Minitab displays the largest and smallest distances between the selected design points. This value is the Euclidean distance. The difference between the smallest and the largest distance values indicates how uniformly the points are spread in the design space. You can use this information to compare designs.
