1 Introduksi
1.1 Latar Belakang
Sweet spot atau operating window adalah region multi-dimensi di faktor space di mana semua kriteria respons terpenuhi sekaligus. Berbeda dari Quick Design Optimizer yang memberi single point optimum, modul ini menggambar peta semua kombinasi yang feasible — penting untuk flexibility production (Myers, Montgomery, & Anderson-Cook, 2016; Khuri & Mukhopadhyay, 2010). Visualisasi standar: overlay contour plot dari multiple responses dengan acceptance constraints dilebur.
Contoh: produsen yogurt ingin yield > 80%, pH 4.4–4.6, dan time-to-set < 6 jam. Setiap response punya contour di plane (Temperature × Inoculum). Overlay ketiga contour memberi sweet spot polygon — region operations yang aman untuk drift kecil sambil tetap meet semua spec.
1.2 Tujuan Modul
Modul Response Overlay / Sweet Spot Finder di SQalytics ditujukan untuk:
- Membaca multiple fitted models dari RSM Studio atau Regression Studio.
- Menggambar overlay contour plot 2D untuk pasangan faktor (dengan faktor lain di-hold pada nilai tertentu).
- Menerapkan constraint specifications per response.
- Mengidentifikasi sweet spot region sebagai intersection semua constraint.
- Audiens: praktisi industri yang butuh operating window, peneliti yang menyajikan robust design region untuk publikasi.
1.3 Posisi di Antara Alternatif
Pilih Response Overlay untuk visualisasi multi-response sweet spot. Untuk single point optimum (numerik), pakai Quick Design Optimizer. Untuk fit model, pakai RSM Studio. Untuk single response contour, pakai modul Graphing Distribution / Heatmap.
2 Metode
2.1 Dasar Teoretis
Contour plot untuk response $y_i = f_i(x_1, x_2)$ — iso-value curves:
$$ \{ (x_1, x_2) : f_i(x_1, x_2) = c \} $$untuk multiple $c$ values. Plot dalam plane $(x_1, x_2)$ dengan faktor lain di-hold pada nilai tertentu (slice plot).
Sweet spot region sebagai intersection inequalities:
$$ S = \{ (x_1, x_2) : L_i \leq f_i(x_1, x_2) \leq U_i \ \forall i \} $$Visualisasi: shading area $S$ pada plot, dengan boundary contours dari setiap constraint berbeda warna. Jika $S = \emptyset$ (intersection kosong), berarti specifications incompatible — perlu re-think spec atau tambah faktor.
Operating window robustness — radius $r$ dari current operating point sampai boundary $S$:
$$ r = \min_{(x_1, x_2) \in \partial S} \sqrt{(x_1 - x_1^*)^2 + (x_2 - x_2^*)^2} $$Operating point $x^*$ dengan $r$ besar berarti drift tolerance tinggi — robust manufacturing.
Cubic spline interpolation atau direct fitted model evaluation untuk render contour smooth.
2.2 Persamaan Inti
Contour: $\{(x_1, x_2) : f_i = c\}$
Sweet spot: $S = \{(x_1, x_2) : L_i \leq f_i \leq U_i \ \forall i\}$
Robustness radius: $r = \min_{\partial S} \text{distance}(x^*, \partial S)$
2.3 Asumsi & Batas Validitas
| Asumsi | Konsekuensi jika dilanggar | Cara cek di SQalytics |
|---|---|---|
| Models fits good ($R^2 > 0.9$) | Contour bias | Pre-check model diagnostics |
| Specifications realistis dan compatible | $S = \emptyset$ | Modul flag impossible |
| Held-constant faktor di realistic level | Slice tidak representatif | Multiple slice exploration |
| Factor space dalam range design | Extrapolasi bias | Modul flag edge |
3 Cara Kerja
3.1 Step-by-Step di SQalytics
- Buka
Response Overlay / Sweet Spot Finderdari domain Desain Eksperimen. - Muat fitted models dari RSM Studio (CSV koefisien) atau definisikan manual.
- Pilih 2 faktor untuk plane plot (X-axis, Y-axis).
- Set held-constant faktor lain pada nilai tertentu (mis. mid-range).
- Per response, tetapkan constraints $L_i$, $U_i$.
- Pilih palette warna per response (Wong colorblind-safe rekomendasi).
- Klik
Generate Overlay. - Tinjau hasil: Tab
Overlay Plot— semua contour + sweet spot shading; TabSweet Spot Stats— area, centroid, robustness radius; TabSlice Explorer— interactive change held-constant.
3.2 Template Tabel Input + Contoh Data Sintetis
Setup yogurt optimization (2 factors plotted, 3 responses with constraints):
| Response | Model (fitted from RSM) | $L$ | $U$ |
|---|---|---|---|
| Yield (%) | $80 + 5T + 2I - 0.5T^2$ | 75 | — |
| Final pH | $4.5 - 0.1T + 0.05I$ | 4.3 | 4.7 |
| Time-set (h) | $8 - 0.3T - 0.2I + 0.02 T \cdot I$ | — | 6 |
Plot factors: T (Temperature, °C, coded −1 to +1 → 35 to 45 °C), I (Inoculum, %, coded −1 to +1 → 1.5% to 3.5%).
3.3 Contoh Luaran
| Region | Y/N | Catatan |
|---|---|---|
| Yield ≥ 75% | ✓ | Bagian atas-kanan plane |
| pH 4.3–4.7 | ✓ | Strip horizontal sentral |
| Time-set ≤ 6 h | ✓ | Bagian kanan (T tinggi) |
| Sweet spot intersection | ✓ | Polygon kecil di T = 0.2 to 0.8, I = −0.3 to 0.5 |
| Sweet spot area | 22% | Dari total faktor space |
| Centroid sweet spot | T = +0.5 (42.5 °C), I = +0.1 (2.6%) | Recommended operating point |
| Robustness radius | 0.35 (coded units) | Drift ± 1.75 °C / ± 0.35% inoculum safe |
