A New Uni-attribute Control Chart to Monitor the Number of Nonconformities

The most well-known uni-arribute control chart used to monitor the number of nonconformities per unit is the Shewhart type C-chart. In this paper, a new method is proposed in an attempt to reduce the false alarm rate in the C-chart. To do this, the decision on beliefs (DOB) concept is first uti [1] Corresponding author e-mail: [email protected]   lized to design an iterative method, where...

A New Control Chart to Monitor Mean Shifts of Bi-Variate Quality Control Processes

Attribute Control Chart Construction Based on Fuzzy Score Number

There is much uncertainty and fuzziness in product quality attributes or quality parameters of a manufacturing process, so the traditional quality control chart can be difficult to apply. This paper proposes a fuzzy control chart. The plotted data was obtained by transforming expert scores into fuzzy numbers. Two types of nonconformity judgment rules—necessity and possibility measurement rules—...

A New Control Chart to Monitor Mean Shifts of Bi-Variate Quality Control Processes

We propose a new approach to monitor an overall mean shift of a bi-variate quality control system. To do this, we first define beliefs on deciding whether the quality characteristics are in out-of-control state. Then, by taking new observations, in an iterative approach we update the belief of each quality characteristics being out-of-control. This task is performed using a recursive method and...

A Control Chart to Monitor a Multivariate Binomial Process

The most applied statistical methods for monitoring multivariate attribute processes have been developed assuming that they have a multinomial distribution, see e.g. Marcucci (1985) and Cassady and Nachlas (2006). However this assumption is not always reasonable; indeed, it is more general and correct to suppose that in each item it is possible to identify one or more of k ordered and not mutua...

An artificial Neural Network approach to monitor and diagnose multi-attribute quality control processes

One of the existing problems of multi-attribute process monitoring is the occurrence of high number of false alarms (Type I error). Another problem is an increase in the probability of not detecting defects when the process is monitored by a set of independent uni-attribute control charts. In this paper, we address both of these problems and consider monitoring correlated multi-attributes proce...
