Technometrics is a Journal of Statistics for the Physical, Chemical, and Engineering Sciences, and is published Quarterly by the American Society for Quality and the American Statistical Association.Since its inception in 1959, the mission of Technometrics has been to contribute to the development and use of statistical methods in the physical, chemical, and engineering sciences.Editorial PolicyThe purpose of Technometrics is to contribute to the development and use of statistical methods in physical, chemical, and engineering sciences as well as information sciences and technology. This vision includes developments on the interface of statistics and computer science such as data mining, machine learning, large databases, and so on. The journal places a premium on clear communication among statisticians and practitioners of these sciences and an emphasis on the application of statistical concepts and methods to problems that occur in these fields. The journal will publish papers describing new statistical techniques, papers illustrating innovative application of known statistical methods, expository papers on particular statistical methods, and papers dealing with the philosophy and problems of applying statistical methods, when such papers are consistent with the journal's objective. Every article shall include adequate justification of the application of the technique, preferably by means of an actual application to a problem in the physical, chemical, engineering or information sciences. All papers must contain a short, clear summary of contents and conclusions. Mathematical derivations not essential to the flow of the text should be placed in an appendix or a supplementary file. Brief descriptions of problems requiring solution and short technical notes that clearly pertain to the journal's purpose will also be considered for publication. Concise letters to the editor will be published when they are considered timely and appropriate.

《技術計量學》是一本物理、化學和工程科學的統計雜志，由美國質量協會和美國統計協會按季度出版。自1959年成立以來，技術計量學的使命一直是促進物理、化學和工程科學中統計方法的發展和使用。編輯政策技術計量學的目的是促進物理、化學、工程科學以及信息科學和技術中統計方法的發展和使用。這一愿景包括統計和計算機科學接口的發展，如數據挖掘、機器學習、大型數據庫等。該雜志重視統計學家和這些科學的實踐者之間的明確交流，并強調將統計概念和方法應用于這些領域中出現的問題。本雜志將發表描述新統計技術的論文、說明創新應用已知統計方法的論文、關于特定統計方法的說明性論文，以及處理應用統計方法的哲學和問題的論文，只要這些論文符合本雜志的目標。每一條都應包括對該技術應用的充分理由，最好是通過對物理、化學、工程或信息科學中的一個問題的實際應用。所有的論文必須包含一個簡短、清晰的內容總結和結論。數學推導對于文本的流動不是必需的，應該放在附錄或補充文件中。還將考慮出版需要解決的問題的簡要說明和顯然與《日刊》宗旨有關的簡短技術說明。給編輯的簡明信函將在認為及時和適當時予以發表。
