There are many situations for statistical process in which we have both random and vagueinformation. When uncertainty is due to fuzziness of information, fuzzy statistical control charts play animportant role in the monitoring process, because they simultaneously deal with both kinds of uncertainty.Dealing with fuzzy characteristics using classical methods may cause the loss of information and ...

Most of the inventory control models assume that quality defect never happens, which means production process is perfect. However, in real manufacturing processes, the production process starts its operation in the in-control state; but after a period of time, shifts to the out-of-control state because of occurrence of some disturbances. In this paper, in order to approach the model to real man...

In many circumstances, the quality of a process or product is best characterized by a given mathematical function between a response variable and one or more explanatory variables that is typically referred to as profile. There are some investigations to monitor auto-correlated linear and nonlinear profiles in recent years. In the present paper, we use the linear mixed models to account autocor...

Traditional control charts for process monitoring are based on taking samples of fixed size from the process using a fixed sampling interval. A recent development in control charts is the use of adaptive control charts, i.e. the variable sampling interval (VSI) and variable sampling size charts. This paper extends this idea to the autocorrelated process. We consider a time series model which is...

Statistical process control (SPC) is a method of monitoring, controlling, and improving a process through statistical analysis. An important SPC tool is the control chart, which can be used to detect changes in production processes, including animal production systems, with a statistical level of confidence. This paper introduces the philosophy and types of control charts, design and performanc...

The most popular tool used in the industry for monitoring a process is the Shewhart control chart. The major disadvantage of the Shewhart control chart is that it is not very efficient in detecting small process average shifts. To increase the sensitivity of Shewhart control charts to small shifts additional supplementary runs rules has been suggested. In this paper we introduce and study the m...

Control charts are widely used in industry as a tool to monitor process characteristics. Deviations from process targets can be detected based on the evidence of statistical significance. The control chart helps to take decisions such as the need for machine or technology replacement to monitor the process with categorical observations. Fuzzy logic is used to cram the uncertainty and vagueness ...
