Performance of Conventional X-bar Chart for Autocorrelated Data Using Smaller Sample Sizes
نویسنده
چکیده
Control charts are used to determine whether or not a manufacturing or business process is in a state of statistical control. Various schemes of the standard (Shewhart) X chart for autocorrelated data at sample sizes of 2 and 3 are developed and compared with the schemes of the same chart for IID data at various process shifts in the process mean. It is clear from the comparison that the in-control ARL of 370 is achieved by employing the X chart for the IID and autocorrelated data but as the level of correlation increases, the performance of conventional (Shewhart) X chart deteriorates. It is concluded that for faster detection in the process mean, the larger sample sizes (n) may be used. Thus the X chart for autocorrelated data should be used with carefully and judiciously.

Cost comparisons of modified X chart for autocorrelated observations
This paper presents the economic design of modified X chart for autocorrelated data and comparison with the economic design of Shewhart’s X chart. An attempt has been made to counter autocorrelation by designing the modified X chart; as the cost of operating a process control system is an important element in the economic design of control charts. The economic designs of both modified and Shewh...
متن کاملA two-sided Bernoulli-based CUSUM control chart with autocorrelated observations
Usually, in monitoring a proportion p < /em>, the binary observations are considered independent; however, in many real cases, there is a continuous stream of autocorrelated binary observations in which a two-state Markov chain model is applied with first-order dependence. On the other hand, the Bernoulli CUSUM control chart which is not robust to autocorrelation can be applied two-sided co...

Nonparametric control chart based on rank is used for detecting changes in median(mean). In this article ,Signed-rank control chart is considered with variable sampling interval. We compared the performance of Signed-rank with variable sampling interval (VSI-SR) to Signed-rank with Fixed Sampling interval (FSI-SR),the numerical results demonstrated the VSI feature is so useful. Bakir[1] showed ...
متن کاملBayesian Estimation of the Multiple Change Points in Gamma Process Using X-bar chart
The process personnel always seek the opportunity to improve the processes. One of the essential steps for process improvement is to quickly recognize the starting time or the change point of a process disturbance. Different from the traditional normally distributed assumption for a process, this study considers a process which follows a gamma process. In addition, we consider the possibility o...

Water pH and active ingredient concentration are two of the most important variables to consider in the manufacturing process of fungicides. If these variables do not meet the required standards, the quality of the product may be compromised and lead to poor fungicide performance when water is used as the application carrier, which is in most cases. Given the correlation between the variable...
