Abstract
A manufacturing defect factor searching method includes: classifying manufacturing monitoring data into a set of non-defective products having an inspection result indicating a non-defective product and a set of defective products having the inspection result indicating a defective product, in accordance with a correspondence relationship between the manufacturing monitoring data and product inspection data indicating the inspection result of the product manufactured in the manufacturing line, the manufacturing monitoring data being collected from a manufacturing line of a product and being multivariate; estimating, for each item of the manufacturing monitoring data, a mixture distribution function approximating to a statistical distribution of each of the set of non-defective products and the set of defective products; resolving the mixture distribution function into components; and generating a list of items including a resolved component having a correlation with a manufacturing quality defect from among items of the manufacturing monitoring data.
