Abstract:
Control charts are effective tools for signal detection in both manufacturing processes and service processes. Much of the data in service industries comes from processes having nonnormal or unknown distributions. The commonly used Shewhart variable control charts, which depend heavily on the normality assumption, are not appropriately used here. In this paper, we propose a new asymmetric EWMA variance chart (EWMA-AV chart) and an asymmetric EWMA mean chart (EWMA-AM chart) based on two simple statistics to monitor process variance and mean shifts simultaneously. Further, we explore the samplin

Abstract:
Accurate determination of gestational age underpins good obstetric care. We assessed the performance of six existing ultrasound reference charts to determine gestational age in 1268 singleton IVF pregnancies, where “true” gestational age could be precisely calculated from date of fertilisation. All charts generated dates significantly different to IVF dates (P<0.0001 all comparisons). Thus we generated a new reference chart, The Monash Chart, based on a line of best fit describing crown-rump length across 6 + 1 to 9 + 0 weeks of gestation (true gestational age) in the IVF singleton cohort.

Abstract:
Control charts serve as an effective tool for controlling and monitoring process quality in industries of production and service. The Shewhart chart is the first control chart that was used to detect large mean shifts in a process. Since then, to increase the Shewhart chart’s sensitivity, synthetic type control charts, such as synthetic control chart, side sensitive group runs (SSGR) control chart, have been proposed. SSGR chart ismore efficient compared to the Shewhart chart and synthetic chart,primarily due to the side sensitive feature in SSGR chart. Meanwhile, exponentially weighted moving

Abstract:
A control chart is often used to monitor the industrial or services processes to improve the quality of the products. Mostly, the monitoring of location parameters, both in Phase I and Phase II, is done using a mean control chart with the assumption that the process is free from outliers or the estimators are correctly estimated from in-control samples. Generally, there are question marks about such kind of narratives. The performance of the mean chart is highly affected in the presence of outliers. Therefore, the median chart is an attractive alternative to the mean chart in this situation. T

Abstract This paper deals with the methodology for practical application of nonparametric control charts. This topic is very important for two reasons: firstly nonparametric control charts are very effective instruments for the realization of the statistical process monitoring phase I due to their robustness against various deviations from the data assumptions that must be met when applying model-based control charts. Secondly nonparametric control charts have very weak SW support and also they are not taught in the frame of training courses not even of the university study programmes. For tha

Abstract:
While researchers and practitioners may seamlessly develop methods of detecting outliers in control charts under a univariate setup, detecting and screening outliers in multivariate control charts pose serious challenges. In this study, we propose a robust multivariate control chart based on the Stahel-Donoho robust estimator (SDRE), whilst the process parameters are estimated from phase-I. Through intensive Monte-Carlo simulation, the study presents how the estimation of parameters and presence of outliers affect the efficacy of the Hotelling T2 chart, and then how the proposed outlier detect

AbstractWe introduce a method to construct an ice thickness chart using two satellite datasets and a one-dimensional high-resolution thermodynamic snow and sea-ice model (HIGHTSI). Thin-ice thickness up to 40 cm is retrieved using MODIS ice surface temperature data. For thicker ice, thickness is retrieved from a combination of SAR image and background level ice thickness chart Hi provided by HIGHTSI. Because Hi is inherently static, we utilize passive microwave data based sea-ice concentration charts to introduce mesoscale ice dynamics into Hi. In order to create the thickness chart, the value

In this study, we have introduced a generalized Hotelling T2 control chart based on bivariate ranked set techniques with runs rules to identify small and moderate variations in a process mean vector. To achieve this aim, plotting statistic and control limits are formulated in generalized approaches. For evaluation purposes, power and power curves are used as performance indicators. Afterwards, power curves are drawn through Monte Carlo simulation procedures by taking into account different choices of factors.

Abstract:
In practice, sometimes the process data did not come from a known population distribution. So the commonly used Shewhart variables control charts are not suitable since their performance could not be properly evaluated. In this paper, we propose a new EWMA Control Chart based on a simple statistic to monitor the small mean shifts in the process with non-normal or unknown distributions. The sampling properties of the new monitoring statistic are explored and the average run lengths of the proposed chart are examined. Furthermore, an Arcsine EWMA Chart is proposed since the average run lengths o

In the literature, median type control charts have been widely investigated as easy and efficient means to monitor the process mean when observations are from a normal distribution. In this work, a Variable Sampling Interval (VSI) Exponentially Weighted Moving Average (EWMA) median control chart is proposed and studied. The Markov chains are used to calculate the average run length to signal (ARL). A performance comparison with the original EWMA median control chart is made. The numerical results show that the proposed chart is considerably more effective as it is faster in detecting process s

This paper presents an integrated digital methodology for the generalization of soundings. The input for the sounding generalization procedure is a high resolution Digital Terrain Model (DTM) and the output is a sounding data set appropriate for portrayal on harbour and approach Electronic Navigational Charts (ENCs). The sounding generalization procedure follows the “ladder approach” that is a requisite for the portrayal of soundings on nautical charts, i.e., any sounding portrayed on a smaller scale chart should also be depicted on larger scale charts.

Abstract:
The false alarm probability (FAP) is the metric typically used to design and evaluate the performance of Phase I control charts. It is shown that in situations where the exact or the asymptotic joint p.d.f. of the standardized charting statistics follows a singular standard multivariate normal distribution with a common negative correlation, the FAP of some Shewhart-type Phase I charts for the mean can be expressed as a multiple integral of the joint p.d.f. Hence the required charting constants can be calculated (and the control chart can be implemented) by evaluating this integral. A table wi

Forecasting the stock market prices is complicated and challenging since the price movement is affected by many factors such as releasing market news about earnings and profits, international and domestic economic situation, political events, monetary policy, major abrupt affairs, etc. In this work, a novel framework: deep predictor for price movement (DPP) using candlestick charts in the stock historical data is proposed. This framework comprises three steps: 1. decomposing a given candlestick chart into sub-charts; 2. using CNN-autoencoder to acquire the best representation of sub-charts; 3.
