Design of variance control charts with estimated parameters: A head to head comparison between two perspectives J. Equal. Technol. (IF 2.019) Pub Date : 2020-11-28 Martin G. C. Sarmiento; Felipe S. Jardim; Subhabrata Chakraborti; Eugenio K. Epprecht
Abstract Since parameter estimation degrades chart performance, it is important to design a control chart correctly, that is, taking account of the estimation effects. To this end, two perspectives are available in the literature: the unconditional, which focuses on the unconditional in-control (IC) average run length ( ARL 0 ), and the conditional, which focuses on the IC run-length distribution conditioned

Optimal experimental designs for ordinal models with mixed factors for industrial and healthcare applications J. Equal. Technol. (IF 2.019) Pub Date : 2020-11-02 Joshua Lukemire; Abhyuday Mandal; Weng Kee Wong
Abstract Models with ordinal outcomes are an important part of generalized linear models and design issues for them are less studied, especially when the model has discrete and continuous factors. We propose an effective and flexible Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) algorithm for finding locally D-optimal approximate designs for experiments with ordinal outcomes modeled using the cumulative logit

Planning accelerated life tests with multiple sources of random effects J. Equal. Technol. (IF 2.019) Pub Date : 2020-10-28 Kangwon Seo; Rong Pan
Abstract Accelerated life testing (ALT) is a commonly used experiment in industries for assessing a product’s lifetime. Planning a proper test with consideration of possible constraints on randomization is important because the prediction accuracy highly depends on the test plan. In this article, an optimal ALT test plan with multiple sources of random effects is demonstrated. Specifically, we consider

A distribution-free joint monitoring scheme for location and scale using individual observations J. Equal. Technol. (IF 2.019) Pub Date : 2020-10-22 Marcus B. Perry; Zhi Wang
Abstract Recent advances in data acquisition and storage technologies have permitted the rapid collection of data over time at a relatively low cost. The implication of these advances to modern quality engineering is that many of today’s processes produce samples of individual observations that are grossly non-normal and, potentially, very highly autocorrelated. Consequently, the typical assumptions

Computationally efficient Bayesian sequential function monitoring J. Equal. Technol. (IF 2.019) Pub Date : 2020-08-20 Wright Shamp; Roumen Varbanov; Eric Chicken; Antonio Linero; Yun Yang
In functional sequential process monitoring, a process is characterized by sequences of observations called profiles which are monitored over time for stability. The goal is to halt a process when the process generating these observations deviates from a specified in control standard. We propose a Bayesian sequential process control (SPC) methodology which uses wavelets to monitor the functional responses

A nonparametric CUSUM chart for monitoring multivariate serially correlated processes J. Equal. Technol. (IF 2.019) Pub Date : 2020-06-24 Li Xue; Peihua Qiu
In applications, most processes for quality control and management are multivariate. Thus, multivariate statistical process control (MSPC) is an important research problem and has been discussed extensively in the literature. Early MSPC research is based on the assumptions that process observations at different time points are independent and they have a parametric distribution (e.g., Gaussian) when

Mixed-input Gaussian process emulators for computer experiments with a large number of categorical levels J. Equal. Technol. (IF 2.019) Pub Date : 2020-06-24 Qiong Zhang; Peter Chien; Qing Liu; Li Xu; Yili Hong
Computer models with both quantitative and qualitative inputs frequently arise in science, engineering and business. Mixed-input Gaussian process models have been used for emulating such models. The key in building this emulator is to accurately estimate the covariance between different categorical levels of the qualitative inputs. This problem is challenging when the number of categorical levels is

A robust dynamic screening system by estimation of the longitudinal data distribution J. Equal. Technol. (IF 2.019) Pub Date : 2020-05-26 Lu You; Peihua Qiu
To online monitor the longitudinal performance of processes and give early signals to processes with irregular patterns, a series of dynamic screening systems (DySS) have been proposed in the literature. Existing DySS methods are all based on estimation of the in-control (IC) mean and variance of processes with a regular longitudinal pattern. In this paper, a new DySS method is suggested, which is

A-optimal versus D-optimal design of screening experiments J. Equal. Technol. (IF 2.019) Pub Date : 2020-05-21 Bradley Jones; Katherine Allen-Moyer; Peter Goos
The purpose of this article is to persuade experimenters to choose A-optimal designs rather than D-optimal designs for screening experiments. The primary reason for this advice is that the A-optimality criterion is more consistent with the screening objective than the D-optimality criterion. The goal of screening experiments is to identify an active subset of the factors. An A-optimal design minimizes

After completing the experimental runs of a screening design, the responses under study are analyzed by statistical methods to detect the active effects. To increase the chances of correctly identifying these effects, a good analysis method should provide alternative interpretations of the data, reveal the aliasing present in the design, and search only meaningful sets of effects as defined by user-specified

This study proposes an efficient approach to detect one or more change points for gamma distribution. We plug a closed-form estimator into the gamma log-likelihood function to obtain a sharp approximation to the maximum of log-likelihood. We further derive a closed form calibration of approximate likelihood which is asymptotically equivalent to the exact log-likelihood. This circumvents iterative optimization

In classical response surface methodology, the optimization step uses a small number of important factors.

Here, we use an extensive simulation to evaluate several analysis strategies in terms of their optimum locating ability

Abstract Parameter estimation has a large impact on control chart performance. Recently, widened control limits have been suggested to guarantee an acceptable in-control behavior. However, the consequence is a reduced ability to detect a real change in the process. In order to overcome this undesired effect, we explore an alternative design based on a delayed updating of parameter estimates. We consider
