Analyzing Batch Volatility and Predicting Future Results

Click For Summary
The discussion focuses on analyzing batch volatility to predict future results, with Batch B4 showing strong performance but a decrease in output over time. It is noted that lower result numbers indicate better performance, and that Batch T's stagnation is due to differing start times. The data reveals two distinct groups of results, suggesting that the small dataset limits the ability to accurately predict outliers. Attempts to identify time-dependence in the values have proven unpromising. Overall, the analysis highlights challenges in forecasting based on the current data.

I have a set of results over time that show the volatility of a batch and trying to determine state at the latter end of the process whether a batch is stronger or getting weaker?

B4 has outperformed all other batches and showing an increase in latter results which means it is slowing or producing less of a result.

The lower the result number the better.

Batch is a single process that is separate from the other processes.

T is a weekly result taken and they are stagnate because they started their process at different times due to their strength.

I’m not sure what to make of these results and is there prediction to the future from the past?
Just like some fresh eyes on this and any idea on how you may see this data..
Thanks

Please check this link for the data:

It looks like there are two groups of numbers - those from 0.2 to 1.2 and a few values up to 3. I think the datasets are too small to predict the number of outliers with a reasonable precision, and those dominate the differences in the averages.
An attempt to find any time-dependence of the values looks even less promising.
 
Here is a little puzzle from the book 100 Geometric Games by Pierre Berloquin. The side of a small square is one meter long and the side of a larger square one and a half meters long. One vertex of the large square is at the center of the small square. The side of the large square cuts two sides of the small square into one- third parts and two-thirds parts. What is the area where the squares overlap?
