In some statistical process control applications, the process data are not Normally distributed and characterized by the combination of both variable and attributes quality characteristics. Despite different methods which are proposed separately for monitoring multivariate and multi-attribute processes, only few methods are available in the literature for monitoring multivariate-attribute proce...

The drawbacks to multivariate charting schemes is their inability to identify which variable was the source of the signal. The multivariate ex...

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 ...
