Using vector autoregressive residuals to monitor multivariate processes in the presence of serial correlation
نویسندگان
چکیده
Traditional literature on statistical quality control discusses separately multivariate control charts for independent processes and univariate control charts for autocorrelated processes. We extend univariate residual monitoring to the multivariate environment, and propose using vector autoregressive residuals (VAR) to monitor multivariate processes in the presence of serial correlation. We mathematically examine the effects of shifts in process parameters on the VAR residual chart, and give examples using data from a plastic production process. The results indicate the feasibility of VAR residual chart to achieve quality control and improvement. r 2006 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

Modified Maximum Likelihood Estimation in First-Order Autoregressive Moving Average Models with some Non-Normal Residuals
When modeling time series data using autoregressive-moving average processes, it is a common practice to presume that the residuals are normally distributed. However, sometimes we encounter non-normal residuals and asymmetry of data marginal distribution. Despite widespread use of pure autoregressive processes for modeling non-normal time series, the autoregressive-moving average models have le...
متن کاملProcess Capability Analysis in the Presence of Autocorrelation
The classical method of process capability analysis necessarily assumes that collected data are independent; nonetheless, some processes such as biological and chemical processes are autocorrelated and violate the independency assumption. Many processes exhibit a certain degree of correlation and can be treated by autoregressive models, among which the autoregressive model of order one (AR (1))...

متن کاملA Self-starting Control Chart for Simultaneous Monitoring of Mean and Variance of Simple Linear Profiles
In many processes in real practice at the start-up stages the process parameters are not known a priori and there are no initial samples or data for executing Phase I monitoring and estimating the process parameters. In addition, the practitioners are interested in using one control chart instead of two or more for monitoring location and variability of processes. In this paper, we consider a s...
متن کاملChange Point Estimation in High Yield Processes in the Presence of Serial Correlation
Change point estimation is as an effective method for identifying the time of a change in production and service processes. In most of the statistical quality control literature, it is usually assumed that the quality characteristic of interest is independently and identically distributed over time. It is obvious that this assumption could be easily violated in practice. In this paper, we use m...
