EWMA Chart and Measurement Error
نویسندگان
چکیده
A Measurement error is a usually met distortion factor in real-world applications that influences the outcome of a process. In this paper, we examine the effect of measurement error on the ability of the EWMA control chart to detect out-of-control situations. The model used is the one involving linear covariates. We investigate the ability of the EWMA chart in the case of a shift in mean. The effect of taking multiple measurements on each sampled unit and the case of linearly increasing variance are also examined. We prove that, in the case of measurement error, the performance of the chart regarding the mean is significantly affected.

Statistical quality control in micro-manufacturing through multivariate ?-EWMA chart
Micro-manufacturing processes are characterized by high process variability and an increased significance of measurement uncertainty in relation to tight tolerance specifications. Therefore, an approach that separates the superposition of measurement and manufacturing variation is demanded. A novel design for a quality control chart that makes it possible to monitor, control and extract measure...
متن کاملA Simple Approach for Monitoring Business Service Time Variation
Control charts are effective tools for signal detection in both manufacturing processes and service processes. Much of the data in service industries comes from processes having nonnormal or unknown distributions. The commonly used Shewhart variable control charts, which depend heavily on the normality assumption, are not appropriately used here. In this paper, we propose a new asymmetric EWMA ...
متن کاملThe properties of the geometric-Poisson exponentially weighted moving control chart with estimated parameters
The geometric-Poisson exponentially weighted moving average (EWMA) chart has been shown to be more effective than the Poisson EWMA chart in monitoring the number of defects in the production processes. In these applications, it is assumed that the process parameters are known or have been accurately estimated. However, in practice, the process parameters are rarely known and must be estimated f...
متن کاملA STUDY OF THE MEDIAN RUN LENGTH (MRL) PERFORMANCE OF THE EWMA t CHART FOR THE MEAN
The exponentially weighted moving average (EWMA) X chart is effective in detecting small shifts. However, the EWMA X chart is not robust enough to prevent errors in estimating the process standard deviation or a changing standard deviation. To overcome this problem, Zhang et al. suggested the EWMA t chart in 2009. The existing optimal design of the EWMA t chart is based on the average run lengt...
متن کاملThe geometric-Poisson exponentially weighted moving control chart with estimated parameters
In many count data sets, an item may have more than one defect that causes the item to be defective. The Poisson EWMA scheme cannot be used to monitor such defects. The geometric-Poisson exponentially weighted moving average (EWMA) chart has been shown to be an effective scheme to monitor the number of defects over time. In these applications, it is assumed that the process parameters are known...
