Abstract:

In this paper, a Multivariate-Multistage Quality Control (MVMSQC) procedure is investigated. In this procedure discriminate analysis, linear regression and control chart theory are combined to control the means of correlated characteristics of a process, which involves several serial stages. Furthermore, the quality of the output at each stage depends on the output of the previous stage as well as the process of the current stage. The theoretical aspects and the applications of this procedure are enhanced and clarified and its performance is evaluated through a series of simulated data. Both in-control (type one error) and out-of-control (type two error) Average Run Length (ARL) studies are made and the performance of the MVMSQC methodology is discussed.

On the multivariate variation control chart

Multivariate control charts such as Hotelling`s T^ 2 and X^ 2 are commonly used for monitoring several related quality characteristics. These control charts use correlation structure that exists between quality characteristics in an attempt to improve monitoring. The purpose of this article is to discuss some issues related to the G chart proposed by Levinson et al. [9] for detecting shifts in ...

A Multivariate Quality Control Procedure in Multistage Production Systems

In this paper a multivariate quality control procedure is offered in which several correlated stages are present in production systems and in each stage there are several correlated control variable. Using Hotelling's T2 statistic, first, each stage is tested for being out of control. Then out of control variables are selected using Murphy's method. The remainder of the research involves evalua...

The Effect of Estimation Error on Risk-adjusted Bernoulli GEWMA Control Chart in Multistage Healthcare Processes

Background and objectives: Risk-adjusted Bernoulli control chart is one of the main tools for monitoring multistage healthcare processes to achieve higher performance and effectiveness in healthcare settings. Using parameter estimates can lead to significantly deteriorate chart performance. However, so far, the effect of estimation error on this chart in which healthcare ...

On the non-parametric multivariate control charts in fuzzy environment

Multivariate control chats are generally used in situations where the simultaneous monitoring or control of two or more related quality characteristics is necessary. In most processes in the real world, distribution of the process characteristics are unknown or at least non-normal, so the non-parametric or distribution-free charts are desirable. Most non-parametric statistical process-control t...

Mann - Withney multivariate nonparametric control chart.

In many quality control applications, the necessary distributional assumptions to correctly apply the traditional parametric control charts are either not met or there is simply not enough information or evidence to verify the assumptions. It is well known that performance of many parametric control charts can be seriously degraded in situations like this. Thus, control charts that do not requi...
