PurposeAs an alternative to the standard p and np charts along with their various modifications, beta control charts are used in the literature for monitoring proportion data. These charts in general use average of proportions to set up the control limits assuming in-control parameters known. The purpose of the paper is to propose a control chart for detecting shift(s) in the percentiles of a beta distributed process monitoring scheme when in-control parameters are unknown. Such situations arise when specific percentile of proportion of conforming or non-conforming units is the quality parameter of interest.Design/methodology/approachParametric bootstrap method is used to develop the control chart for monitoring percentiles of a beta distributed process when in-control parameters are unknown. Extensive Monte Carlo simulations are conducted for various combinations of percentiles, false-alarm rates and sample sizes to evaluate the in-control performance of the proposed bootstrap control charts in terms of average run lengths (ARL). The out-of-control behavior and performance of the proposed bootstrap percentile chart is thoroughly investigated for several choices of shifts in the parameters of beta distribution. The proposed chart is finally applied to two skewed data sets for illustration.FindingsThe simulated values of in-control ARL are found to be closer to the theoretical results implying that the proposed chart for percentiles performs well with both positively and negatively skewed data. Also, the out-of-control ARL values for the percentiles decrease sharply with both downward and upward small, medium and large shifts in the parameters. The phenomenon indicates that the chart is effective in detecting shifts in the parameters. However, the speed of detection of shifts varies depending on the type of shift, the parameters and the percentile being considered. The proposed chart is found to be effective in comparison to the Shewhart-type chart and bootstrap-based unit gamma chart.Originality/valueIt is worthwhile to mention that the beta control charts proposed in the literature use average of proportion to set up the control limits. However, in practice, specific percentile of proportion of conforming or non-conforming items should be more useful as the quality parameter of interest than average. To the best of our knowledge, no research addresses beta control chart for percentiles of proportion in the literature. Moreover, the proposed control chart assumes in-control parameters to be unknown, and hence captures additional variability introduced into the monitoring scheme through parameter estimation. In this sense, the proposed chart is original and unique.

Normally Distributed

The fundamental assumption of variable control charts is that the data are normally distributed and spread randomly about the mean. Process data are not always normally distributed, hence there is need to set up appropriate control charts that gives accurate control limits to monitor processes that are skewed. In this study Shewhart-type control charts for monitoring positively skewed data that are assumed to be from Marshall-Olkin Inverse Loglogistic Distribution (MOILLD) was developed. Average Run Length (ARL) and Control Limits Interval (CLI) were adopted to assess the stability and performance of the MOILLD control chart. The results obtained were compared with Classical Shewhart (CS) and Skewness Correction (SC) control charts using the ARL and CLI. It was discovered that the control charts based on MOILLD performed better and are more stable compare to CS and SC control charts. It is therefore recommended that for positively skewed data, a Marshall-Olkin Inverse Loglogistic Distribution based control chart will be more appropriate.

Two Parameter

In this paper, two methods of control chart were proposed to monitor the process based on the two-parameter Gompertz distribution. The proposed methods are the Gompertz Shewhart approach and Gompertz skewness correction method. A simulation study was conducted to compare the performance of the proposed chart with that of the skewness correction approach for various sample sizes. Furthermore, real-life data on thickness of paint on refrigerators which are nonnormal data that have attributes of a Gompertz distribution were used to illustrate the proposed control chart. The coverage probability (CP), control limit interval (CLI), and average run length (ARL) were used to measure the performance of the two methods. It was found that the Gompertz exact method where the control limits are calculated through the percentiles of the underline distribution has the highest coverage probability, while the Gompertz Shewhart approach and Gompertz skewness correction method have the least CLI and ARL. Hence, the two-parameter Gompertz-based methods would detect out-of-control faster for Gompertz-based X¯ charts.

<p><em>The manufacturing production process that is currently trend is short-run. Short-run process is a job shop and a just in-time. These causes the process parameters to be unknown due to unavailability of data and generally a small amount of product. The control chart is one of the control charts which  designed for the short run. The procedure of the control chart follows the concept of succesive difference and under the assumption of the multivariate Normal distribution. The sensitivity level of a control chart is evaluated based on the average run length (ARL) value. In this study, the ARL value was calculated based on the shift simulation of the average vector by recording the first m-point out of the control limits. The average vector shift simulation of the target () is performed simultaneously with the properties of a positive shift (=+ δ). Variations of data size and many variables in this study were m = 20, 50 and p = 2, 4, 8, respectively. Each scheme (a combination of δ, m and p) is iterated 250,000 times. The simulation results show that for all schemes when both parameters are known ARL<sub>0 </sub>≈ 370. But, when parameters are unknown, ARL<sub>1</sub> turn to smaller. This conclusion also implied when the number of p and n are increased, it reduce the sensitivity of the control chart.</em></p>

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to apply fuzzy spectrum in order to collect the vague and imprecise data and to employ the fuzzy U control chart in variable sample size using fuzzy rules. This approach is improved and developed by providing some new rules. Design/methodology/approach The fuzzy operating characteristic (FOC) curve is applied to investigate the performance of the fuzzy U control chart. The application of FOC presents fuzzy bounds of operating characteristic (OC) curve whose width depends on the ambiguity parameter in control charts. Findings To illustrate the efficiency of the proposed approach, a practical example is provided. Comparing performances of control charts indicates that OC curve of the crisp chart has been located between the FOC bounds, near the upper bound; as a result, for the crisp control chart, the probability of the type II error is of significant level. Also, a comparison of the crisp OC curve with OCavg curve and FOCα curve approved that the probability of the type II error for the crisp chart is more than the same amount for the fuzzy chart. Finally, the efficiency of the fuzzy chart is more than the crisp chart, and also it timely gives essential alerts by means of linguistic terms. Consequently, it is more capable of detecting process shifts. Originality/value This research develops the fuzzy U control chart with variable sample size whose output is fuzzy. After creating control charts, performance evaluation in the industry is important. The main contribution of this paper is to employs the FOC curve for evaluating the performance of the fuzzy control chart, while in prior studies in this area, the performance of fuzzy control chart has not been evaluated.

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to develop some robust approaches to estimate the logistic regression profile parameters in order to decrease the effects of outliers on the performance of T2 control chart. In addition, the performance of the non-robust and the proposed robust control charts is evaluated in Phase II. Design/methodology/approach In this paper some, robust approaches including weighted maximum likelihood estimation, redescending M-estimator and a combination of these two approaches (WRM) are used to decrease the effects of outliers on estimating the logistic regression parameters as well as the performance of the T2 control chart. Findings The results of the simulation studies in both Phases I and II show the better performance of the proposed robust control charts rather than the non-robust control chart for estimating the logistic regression profile parameters and monitoring the logistic regression profiles. Practical implications In many practical applications, there are outliers in processes which may affect the estimation of parameters in Phase I and as a result of deteriorate the statistical performance of control charts in Phase II. The methods developed in this paper are effective for decreasing the effect of outliers in both Phases I and II. Originality/value This paper considers monitoring the logistic regression profile in Phase I under the presence of outliers. Also, three robust approaches are developed to decrease the effects of outliers on the parameter estimation and monitoring the logistic regression profiles in both Phases I and II.

Moderate distribution proposed by Naik V.D and Desai J.M., is a sound alternative of normal distribution, which has mean and mean deviation as pivotal parameters and which has properties similar to normal distribution. Mean deviation (δ) is a very good alternative of standard deviation (σ) as mean deviation is considered to be the most intuitively and rationally defined measure of dispersion. This fact can be very useful in the field of quality control to construct the control limits of the control charts. On the basis of this fact Naik V.D. and Tailor K.S. have proposed 3δ control limits. In 3δ control limits, the upper and lower control limits are set at 3δ distance from the central line where δ is the mean deviation of sampling distribution of the statistic being used for constructing the control chart. In this paper assuming that the underlying distribution of the variable of interest follows moderate distribution proposed by Naik V.D and Desai J.M, 3δ control limits of sample standard deviation(s) chart are derived. Also the performance analysis of the control chart is carried out with the help of OC curve analysis and ARL curve analysis.

Purpose – In order to meet the requirements of 6σ management and to overcome the deficiencies of the theory for using the pre-control chart to evaluate and monitor quality stability, the purpose of this paper is to probe into the quality stability evaluation and monitoring guidelines of small batch production process based on the pre-control chart under the conditions of the distribution center and specifications center non-coincidence (0<ɛ≤1.5σ), the process capability index C p ≥2 and the virtual alarm probability α=0.27 percent. Design/methodology/approach – First, the range of the quality stability evaluation sampling number in initial production process is determined by using probability and statistics methods, the sample size for the quality stability evaluation is adjusted and determined in initial production process according to the error judgment probability theory, and the guideline for quality stability evaluation has been proposed in initial production process based on the theory of small probability events. Second, the alternative guidelines for quality stability monitoring and control in formal production process are proposed by using combination theory, the alternative guidelines are initially selected based on the theory of small probability events, a comparative analysis of the guidelines is made according to the average run lengths values, and the monitoring and control guidelines for quality stability are determined in formal production process. Findings – The results obtained from research indicate that when the virtual alarm probability α=0.27 percent, the shifts ɛ in the range 0<ɛ≤1.5σ and the process capability index C p ≥2, the quality stability evaluation sample size of the initial production process is 11, whose scondition is that the number of the samples falling into the yellow zone is 1 at maximum. The quality stability evaluation sample size of the formal production process is 5, and when the number of the samples falling into the yellow zone is ≤1, the process is stable, while when two of the five samples falling into the yellow, then one more sample needs to be added, and only if this sample falls into the green zone, the process is stable. Originality/value – Research results can overcome the unsatisfactory 6σ management assumptions and requirements and the oversize virtual alarm probability α of the past pre-control charts, as well as the shortage only adaptable to the pre-control chart when the shifts ɛ=0. And at the same time, the difficult problem hard to adopt the conventional control charts to carry out process control because of a fewer sample sizes is solved.

Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to compare the performances of np-VP control chart with estimated parameter to the np-VP control chart with known parameter using average time-to-signal (ATS), standard deviation of the time-to-signal (SDTS), and average number of observations to signal (ANOS) as performance measures. Design/methodology/approach – The approach used in this study is probabilistic in which the expected values of performance measures are calculated using probabilities of different estimators used to estimate process parameter. Findings – Numerical results indicate different performances for the np-VP control chart in known and estimated parameter cases. It is obvious that when process parameter is not known and is estimated using Phase I data, the chart does not perform as user expects. To tackle this issue, optimal Phase I estimation scenarios are recommended to obtain the best performance from the chart in the parameter estimation case in terms of performance measures. Practical implications – This research adds to the body of knowledge in quality control of process monitoring systems. This paper may be of particular interest to practitioners of quality systems in factories where products are monitored to reduce the number of defectives and np chart parameter needs to be estimated. Originality/value – The originality of this paper lies within the context in which an adaptive np control chart is studied and the process parameter unlike previous studies is assumed unknown. Although other types of control charts have been studied when process parameter is unknown but this is the first time that adaptive np chart performance with estimated process parameter is studied.
