In this paper, we proposed multivariate EWMA control charts for both combine-accumulate and accumulate-combine approaches to monitor dispersion matrix of multiple quality variables. Numerical performance of the proposed charts are evaluated in terms of average run length(ARL). The performances show that small smoothing constants with accumulate-combine approach is preferred for detecting small shifts of the production process.

An economic design of the $\bar{X}-R$ chart using variable sample size (VSS) scheme is proposed in this paper. In this design the sample size at each sampling time changes according to the values of the previous two sample statistics, sample mean and range. The VSS scheme uses large sample if the sample statistics appear near inside the control limits and smaller sample otherwise. The set of process parameters, such as the sampling interval, control limits and the sample sizes, are chosen to minimize the expected cost per hour. The efficiency of the VSS scheme is compared to the fixed sample size one for cases where there is multiple of assignable causes. Percent reductions of the expected cost in the VSS design are calculated for some given sets of cost parameters. It is shown that the VSS scheme improves the confidence of the procedure and performs statistically better in terms of the number of false alarms and the average time to signal, respectively.

Knowing the time of the process change could lead to quicker identification of the responsible special cause and less process down time, and it could help to reduce the probability of incorrectly identifying the special cause. In this paper, we propose a maximum likelihood estimator of the process change point when a Shewhart $\bar{X}$ chart with variable sample size (VSS) scheme signals a change in the process mean. Also we build a confidence interval for the process change point by using the likelihood function.

Quality requirements of manufactured products or parts are given in the form of specification limits on the quality characteristics of individual units. If a product is to meet the customer's fitness for use criteria, it should be produced by a process which is stable or repeatable. In other words, it must be capable of operating with little variability around the target value or nominal value of the product's quality characteristic. In order to maintain and improve product quality, we need to apply statistical process control techniques such as histogram, check sheet, Pareto chart, cause and effect diagram, or control charts. Among those techniques, the most important one is control charting. The cumulative sum (CUSUM) control charts have been used in statistical process control (SPC) in industries for monitoring process shifts and supporting online measurement. The objective of this research is to apply Taguchi's quality loss function concept to cost based CUSUM control chart design. In this study, a modified quality loss function was developed to reflect quality loss situation where general quadratic loss curve is not appropriate. This research also provided a methodology for the design of CUSUM charts using Taguchi quality loss function concept based on the minimum cost per hour criterion. The new model differs from previous models in that the model assumes that quality loss is incurred even in the incontrol period. This model was compared with other cost based CUSUM models by Wu and Goel, According to numerical sensitivity analysis, the proposed model results in longer average run length in in-control period compared to the other two models.

1920년대에 소개되었던 Shewhart 관리도는 관측치가 서로 독립임을 가정했다. 오늘날은 데이터 측정과 자료수집 기술이 발전하면서 자기상관 공정 데이터가 많이 발생하고 있으며, 이것은 통계적 공정 관리의 성능에 부정적인 영향을 끼치게 된다. 자기상관이 존재하는 데이터에 대하여 가장 쉽게 접근할 수 있는 관리도는 먼저 자기상관구조를 모형화할 수 있는 적절한 시계열 모형을 가정한 다음 잔차를 구하여, 그 잔차에 기반한 Shewhart 관리도를 적용하는 것이다. 실제 문제에서 시계열 모형의 참 모수값은 알려져 있지 않으므로, 이 값은 일단계 표본(과거의 관리상태 표본)으로부터 추정된다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 모수추정이 이단계 표본을 모니터링하는데 어떠한 영향이 있는지 살펴보았다.

호텔링 $T^2$ 통계량에 근거한 다변량 관리도는 공정의 이상상태를 식별하는 통계적 공정관리의 강력한 도구 중 하나이다. 다수의 품질 특성치를 동시에 모니터링하는데 사용된다. $T^2$ 관리도를 통해 이상신호가 탐지된다는 것은 평균 벡터의 변화가 있다는 것을 의미하게 된다. 그러나, 이러한 다변량 통계량의 신호는 이상신호에 대한 원인을 식별하기 어렵게 한다. 이 논문에서는 $T^2$ 통계량을 서로 독립인 항으로 분해한 Mason, Young, Tracy (MYT) 분해에 기반한 원인 식별 방법들을 살펴본다. 또한, R 소프트웨어를 사용하여 사례분석을 하고, 모의실험을 통해 각 절차의 성능을 비교 평가해보고자 한다.

Purpose: The purpose of this study is to set up an anomaly detection criteria for sensor data coming from a motorcycle. Methods: Five sensor values for accelerator pedal, engine rpm, transmission rpm, gear and speed are obtained every 0.02 second from a motorcycle. Exploratory data analysis is used to find any pattern in the data. Traditional process control methods such as X control chart and time series models are fitted to find any anomaly behavior in the data. Finally unsupervised learning algorithm such as k-means clustering is used to find any anomaly spot in the sensor data. Results: According to exploratory data analysis, the distribution of accelerator pedal sensor values is very much skewed to the left. The motorcycle seemed to have been driven in a city at speed less than 45 kilometers per hour. Traditional process control charts such as X control chart fail due to severe autocorrelation in each sensor data. However, ARIMA model found three abnormal points where they are beyond 2 sigma limits in the control chart. We applied a copula based Markov chain to perform statistical process control for correlated observations. Copula based Markov model found anomaly behavior in the similar places as ARIMA model. In an unsupervised learning algorithm, large sensor values get subdivided into two, three, and four disjoint regions. So extreme sensor values are the ones that need to be tracked down for any sign of anomaly behavior in the sensor values. Conclusion: Exploratory data analysis is useful to find any pattern in the sensor data. Process control chart using ARIMA and Joe's copula based Markov model also give warnings near similar places in the data. Unsupervised learning algorithm shows us that the extreme sensor values are the ones that need to be tracked down for any sign of anomaly behavior.

Poisson 분포를 따르는 결점수를 관측하여 공정을 관리할 때 표본 크기를 동일하게 유지하기가 힘든 경우가 많다. 이 논문은 표본 크기가 동일하지 않은 경우 Poisson 공정모수의 변화를 탐지하는 GLR(generalized likelihood ratio) 관리도 절차를 제안하고 있다. 또한 제안된 GLR 관리도의 효율을 모의실험을 통하여 기존에 연구된 CUSUM 관리도들과 비교하였다. 모의실험 결과, 제안된 GLR 관리도는 공정모수의 다양한 변화에 대해 효율이 대체적으로 양호했으며, CUSUM 관리도에서 실제 공정모수의 변화값이 미리 지정한 값과 차이가 많이 날 경우 CUSUM 관리도에 비해 효율이 월등히 좋음을 알 수 있었다.

A control chart is very useful in monitoring various production process. There are many situations in which the simultaneous control of two or more related quality variables is necessary. When the joint distribution of the process variables is multivariate normal, multivariate Shewhart control charts using the function of the maximum likelihood estimator for monitoring the dispersion matrix are considered for the simultaneous monitoring of the dispersion matrix. The performances of the multivariate Shewhart control charts based on the proposed control statistic are evaluated in term of average run length (ARL). The performance is investigated in three cases, where the variances, covariances, and variances and covariances are changed respectively. The numerical results show that the performances of the proposed multivariate Shewhart control charts are not better than the control charts using the trace of the covariance matrix in the Jeong and Cho (2012) in terms of the ARLs.

Purpose: This paper evaluates the performance of the pre-control(PC), an alternative to statistical process control techniques and compares with a control chart considering the tolerance of process. Methods: The previous studies for PC have drawbacks that PC with two linked stages, qualification and running, are discussed separately and independently. Hence this paper analyzes the performance of PC by integrating two stages. Results: Average outgoing quality limits to grasp the outcome of PC are provided by computational results for two process capability indexes, $C_p$ and $C_{pk}$ and the usefulness of PC from comparative experiments with modified control charts is commented. Conclusion: Helpful guidelines for quality managers to apply PC in practice and areas of process for PC to be more benefit are presented.
