  • Social network analysis (SNA) techniques have recently been developed to monitor and detect abnormal behaviors in social networks. As a useful tool for process monitoring, control charts are also useful for network monitoring. In this paper, the degree and closeness centrality measures, in which each has global and local perspectives, respectively, are applied to an exponentially weighted moving average (EWMA) chart and a multinomial cumulative sum (CUSUM) chart for monitoring undirected weighted networks. In general, EWMA charts monitor only one variable in a single chart, whereas multinomial CUSUM charts can monitor a categorical variable, in which several variables are transformed through classification rules, in a single chart. To monitor both degree centrality and closeness centrality simultaneously, we categorize them based on the average of each measure and then apply to the multinomial CUSUM chart. In this case, the global and local attributes of the network can be monitored simultaneously with a single chart. We also evaluate the performance of the proposed procedure through a simulation study.

  • Batch processes are a significant class of processes in the process industry and play an important role in the production of high quality speciality materials. Examples include the production of semiconductors, chemicals, pharmaceuticals, and biochemicals. With on-line sensors connected to most batch processes, massive amounts of data are being collected routinely during the batch on easily measured process variables such as temperatures, pressures, and flowrates. In this paper, multivariate SPC charts for on-line monitoring of the progress of new batches are developed which utilize the information in the on-line measurements in real-time. We propose the formation of statistical model which describes the normal operation of a batch at each time interval during the batch operation. An on-line monitoring scheme based on the proposed method can handle both cross-correlation among process variables at any one time and auto-correlation over time. And the control limits for the monitoring charts are established from sound statistical framework unlike previous researches which use the external reference distribution. The proposed charts perform real-time, on-line monitoring to ensure that the batch is progressing in a manner that will lead to a high-quality product or to detect and indicate faults that can be corrected prior to completion of the batch. This approach is capable of tracking the progress of new batch runs, identifying the time periods in which the fault occurred and detecting underlying cause.

  • This research investigates economic-statistical characteristics of variable sampling size and interval (VSSI)$\bar{X}$charts under two assignable causes. A Markov chain approach is employed in order to calculate average run length (ARL) and average time to signal (ATS). Six transient states are derived by carefully defining the state. A steady state cost rate function is constructed based on Lorenzen and Vance(1986) model. The cost rate function is optimized with respect to six design parameters for designing the VSSI $\bar{X}$ charts. Computational experiments show that the VSSI $\bar{X}$ chart is superior to the Shewhart $\bar{X}$ chart in the economic-statistical sense, even under two assignable causes. A comparative study shows that the cost rate may increase up to almost 30% by overlooking the second cause. Critical input parameters are also derived from a sensitivity study and a few guideline graphs are provided for determining the design parameters.

  • I propose the control chart pattern to provide a more comprehensive scheme for detecting process X and R shifts using individual observations in start-up process. It is important to automate the identification of special disturbances to facilitate real-time manufacturing. This papers formulates X-R charts for interpretation by artificial neural networks. In this papers, which uses the backpropagation algorithm, two samples are fed into the trained neural network to provide outputs ranging from 0 to 1. Simulation results sow that the performance of the proposed control chart using the neural network(NNCC) is quite promising. Using these NN charts, guidelines are given for detecting and classifying process X and R shifts.

  • Under the strong leadership of Chinese Government to the anti-SARS struggle, the situation has been successfully controlled. Since May 1 of 2003, the Ministry of Health of China published daily the number of newly increased SARS patient of Beijing, the authors analyzed these data using $X_cs$$-R_scs$ cause-selecting control charts of Statistical Diagnosis(SPD) Theory. Data about number of newly increased SARS patient consists of two kinds of variation: random variation and tendency variation of SARS epidemic. It is concluded that SARS epidemic of Beijing was already controlled since May 9 of 2003.

  • Conventional SPC assumes that observations are independent. Often in industrial practice, however, observations are not independent. A common approach to building control charts for autocorrelated data is to apply conventional SPC to the residuals from a time series model of the process or is to apply conventional SPC to the weighted or unweighted subgroup means. In this paper, we propose a robust CUSUM control scheme for the detection of level change, without model identification or subgrouping of autocorrelated data. The proposed CUSUM chart and other conventional control charts are compared by a Monte Carlo simulation. It is shown that the proposed CUSUM chart is more effective than conventional CUSUM chart when the process is autocorrelated.

  • In start up process control, it may be necessary to use appropriate scheme in monitoring processes with individual observations. In these situation individual observations are periodically drawn from the process. In this paper, using modifying statistics with individual measurement, we suggest a simple technique which operating control chart for monitoring the process. And compare individual observation control procedures that are X, an exponentially weighted moving(EWM), adjusted EWM and adjusted MCEWM charts. And estimate the ARL to detection of shifts in the process mean and standard deviation using simulation.

  • In recent industry society, it is revealed that, as an increase in the use of automated manufacturing and process inspection technology, the data from mass production system exhibits some degrees of autocorrelation. The operation characteristics of traditional control charts developed under the independence assumption are adversely affected by the presence of serial correlation. Therefore, when autocorrelated construction contacted with time-series models explain, the time-series models are the Box-Jenkins forecast models which have been proposed as the best forecasting tool which allows for partitioning of variation into result from the autocorrelation structure and variation due to unusual but assignable causes. In this paper, for the AR(1) process of Box-Jenkins forecast models, when the constant term ξ are zero and different from zero, I want to analyze the sensitivity of (equation omitted), CUSUM and EWMA control chart for forecast residuals.
