Control charts are generally used for process control, but the role of traditional control charts have been limited in case of a non-contaminated process. Traditional ${\bar{x}}$-s control chart has not been activated well for such a problem because of trying to control processes as center line and control limits changed by the contaminated value. This paper suggests modified ${\bar{x}}$-s control chart based on robust estimation. In this paper, we consider the trimmed mean of the sample means and the trimmed mean of the sample standard deviations. By comparing with ARL value, the responding results are decided. The comparison resultant results of traditional control chart and modified control chart are contrasted.

In this paper, we gave 3 suitable modified control chart at the same time shows. First control chart is plot analysis control chart by sampling data, Second control chart is including Upper Spec and Lower Spec in first control chart. Third control chart is including target value and new calculated upper/lower control line by using known average and standard deviation of long term data. If 3 control charts are seen at the same time, there is advantage that can see problem of process at a look. We hope this method proposed in this treatise give many help in spot.

We consider the problem of detecting special variations in multivariate $T^2$-control chart when two or more multivariate outliers are present. Since a multivariate outlier may reflect slippage in mean, variance, or correlation, it can distort the sample mean vector and sample covariance matrix. Damaged sample mean vector and sample covariance matrix have difficulty in examining special variations clearly, An alternative to detection outliers or special variations is to use robust estimators of mean vector and covariance matrix that are less sensitive to extreme observations than are the standard estimators $\bar{x}$ and $\textbf{S}$. We applied popular minimum volume ellipsoid(MVE) and minimum covariance determinant(MCD) method to estimate mean vector and covariance matrix and compared its results with standard $T^2$-control chart using simulated multivariate data with outliers. We found that the modified $T^2$-control chart based on the above robust methods were more effective in detecting special variations clearly than the standard $T^2$-control chart.

In this study, we establish bootstrap control limits for EWMA chart by applying the bootstrap method, called resampling, which could not demand assumptions about pre-distribution when the process is skewed and/or the normality assumption is doubt. The results obtained in this study are summarized as follows : bootstrap EWMA control chart is developed for applying bootstrap method to EWMA chart, which is more sensitive to small shifts of process. With the purpose of eliminating a skewness of the resampling distribution, the bootstrap control limits are established by using a modified residual, and its performance is analyzed by ARL. It is shown that the bootstrap EWMA control chart developed in this study includes the properties of standard EWMA control chart that is sensitive to a small shift, and detects process in out of control more quickly than standard EWMA chart.

We consider the problem of using control charts to monitor more than one parameter with emphasis on simultaneously monitoring the mean and variance. The fixed sampling interval (FSI) control charts are modified to use variable sampling interval (VSI) control charts depending on what is being observed from the data. In general, approaches of monitoring the mean and variance simultaneously is to use separate charts for each parameter and a combined chart. In this paper, we use three basic strategies which are separate Shewhart charts for each parameter, a combined Shewhart chart and a combined CUSUM chart. We showed that a combined VSI CUSUM chart is comparatively more efficient than any other chart if the shifts in both mean and variance are small.

Control chart is a very extensively used tool in testing whether a process is in a state of statistical control or not. In this paper, a robust control chart for variables is proposed, which is based on the Huber's M-estimator. The Huber's M-estimator is a well-known robust estimator in sense of distributional robustness. In the proposed chart, the estimation of the process deviation is modified to have a stable level and high power. To compare the performances of the proposed control chart with the classical (equation omitted), some Monte Carlo simulations are performed. The simulation results show that the robust control chart has good performance.

Control chart is a very extensively used tool in testing whether a process is in a state of statistical control or not. In this paper, we propose a robust EWMA(exponentially weighted moving averages) control chart for variables, which is based on the Huber's M-estimator. The Huber's M-estimator is a well-known robust estimator in sense of distributional robustness. In the proposed chart, the estimation of the process deviation is modified to have a s table level and high power. To compare the performances of the proposed control chart with other charts, some Monte Carlo simulations we performed. The simulation results show that the robust EWMA control chart has good performance.

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.

According to the original chart parsing algorithm, a sentence is parsed in a strict left-to-right order. The modified chart parsing algorithm proposed in this paper breaks the strictness. With the proposed algorithm, a sentence is parsed in a random order. Conventional left-to-right parsing is also possible, since left-to-right parsing is a special case of random-order parsing. The proposed parsing algorithm is an extension of chart parsing algorithm and its control structure is very simple, so that it is easy to implement the algorithm.

The target costing technique, mathematically discussed by Sauers, only uses the $C_p$ index along with Taguchi loss function and ${\bar{X}}-R$ control charts to set up goal control limits. The new specification limits derived from Taguchi loss function is linked through the $C_p$ value to ${\bar{X}}-R$ control charts to obtain goal control limits. This study further considers the reflected normal loss function as well as the $C_{pk}$ index along with its lower confidence interval in forming goal control limits. With the use of lower confidence interval to replace the point estimator of the $C_{pk}$ index and reflected normal loss function proposed by Spiring to measure the loss to society, this modified and improved target costing technique would become more robust and applicable in practice. Finally, an example is provided to illustrate how this modified and improved target costing technique works.
