In many industrial and non-industrial applications the quality of a process or product is characterized by a relationship between a response variable and one or more explanatory variables. This relationship is referred to as profile. In the past decade, profile monitoring has been extensively studied under the normal response variable, but it has paid a little attention to the profile with the ...

Profile is a relationship between a response variable and one or more independent variables which can describe quality of a process or a product. On the other hand, for an in-control process, capability indices are criteria for the process quality improvement that allows to meet customers’ expectations. Despite a considerable number of applications and monitoring methods already proposed for pr...

Abstract— In some real case problems, a relationship between a response variable and one or more explanatory variables called as profile is desirable to be monitored over time instead of the response variable itself. There are many techniques in the literature for monitoring the profiles. A special case of the profiles is where the response variable follows a binomial distribution known as Logi...

AIMS/INTRODUCTION The purpose of the present study was to investigate the severity of glucose profiles and β-cell function associated with diabetic cardiovascular autonomic neuropathy (DCAN) in a Chinese sample. MATERIALS AND METHODS A community-based, cross-sectional study to analyze the risk factors of DCAN was carried out with 455 individuals recruited from a Chinese population. The glucos...

In most of advanced processes, quality of a final product depends on the several quality characteristic in the previous stages. This is called a cascade property in multi-stage processes. On the other hand, sometimes the quality of a process or product is characterized by a relationship between a response variable and one or more explanatory variable(s).This relation is called profile. In some ...
