[ 1 ] - Bayesian Estimation of Shift Point in Shape Parameter of Inverse Gaussian Distribution Under Different Loss Functions
In this paper, a Bayesian approach is proposed for shift point detection in an inverse Gaussian distribution. In this study, the mean parameter of inverse Gaussian distribution is assumed to be constant and shift points in shape parameter is considered. First the posterior distribution of shape parameter is obtained. Then the Bayes estimators are derived under a class of priors and using variou...
[ 2 ] - Absorbing Markov Chain Models to Determine Optimum Process Target Levels in Production Systems with Rework and Scrapping
In this paper, absorbing Markov chain models are developed to determine the optimum process mean levels for both a single-stage and a serial two-stage production system in which items are inspected for conformity with their specification limits. When the value of the quality characteristic of an item falls below a lower limit, the item is scrapped. If it falls above an upper limit, the item is ...
[ 3 ] - Implementation of Traditional (S-R)-Based PM Method with Bayesian Inference
In order to perform Preventive Maintenance (PM), two approaches have evolved in the literature. The traditional approach is based on the use of statistical and reliability analysis of equipment failure. Under statistical-reliability (S-R)-based PM, the objective of achieving the minimum total cost is pursued by establishing fixed PM intervals, which are statistically optimal, at which to replac...
[ 4 ] - Application of Decision on Beliefs for Fault Detection in uni-variate Statistical Process Control
In this research, the decision on belief (DOB) approach was employed to analyze and classify the states of uni-variate quality control systems. The concept of DOB and its application in decision making problems were introduced, and then a methodology for modeling a statistical quality control problem by DOB approach was discussed. For this iterative approach, the belief for a system being out-...
[ 5 ] - A Bayesian Approach for the Recognition of Control Chart Patterns
In this research, an iterative approach is employed to recognize and classify control chart patterns. To do this, by taking new observations on the quality characteristic under consideration, the Maximum Likelihood Estimator of pattern parameters is first obtained and then the probability of each pattern is determined. Then using Bayes’ rule, probabilities are updated recursively. Finally, when...
[ 6 ] - Designing a Single Stage Acceptance Sampling Plan Based on the Control Threshold Poli
In this research, a new control policy for the acceptance sampling problem is introduced. Decision is made based on the number of defectives items in an inspected batch. The objective of the model is to find a constant control level that minimizes the total costs, including the cost of rejecting the batch, the cost of inspection and the cost of defective items. The optimization is performed by...
[ 7 ] - Cost Analysis of Fuzzy Queuing Systems
Regarding the fact that getting a suitable combination of the human resources and service stations is one of the important issues in the most service and manufacturing environments, In this paper, we have studied the two models of planning queuing systems and its effect on the cost of the each system by using two fuzzy queuing models of M/M/1 and M/E2/1. In the first section, we have compar...
[ 8 ] - یک روش ابتکاری برای تجزیه و تحلیل خط مونتاژ برمبنای شبیهسازی و طراحی آزمایشها
A heuristic method based on simulation and design of experiments for performance improvement of assembly line is presented in this paper. In the proposed method, all effective factors on the performance of an assembly line are specified using the expert's point of view and then a 2k factorial design is used for the selection of the most effective factors. Also a factorial design is applied for ...
[ 9 ] - Economic-statistical Design of NP Control Chart with Variable Sample Size and Sampling Interval
The control charts are graphical tools and proven techniques to improve the performance of a process. Usually, the processes are not naturally controlled, so the use of control charts will help to reduce the variability and increase the stability of the process. In the traditional approach, control charts with fix sample size and constant sampling intervals were used to identify the changes in ...
