Multivariate statistical process control with industrial applications

From MaRDI portal





This book centers around Hotelling's \(T^2\) statistics and its applications in statistical quality control. In the first three chapters, the \(T^2\) statistic, its basic concepts and the underlying assumptions are discussed in detail. Chapters 4 and 5 are devoted to the Historical Data Set, which is a collection of data obtained from a process operating in-control and used for the purpose of determining the control procedure and for comparison with actual samples. General guidelines for a HDS are given in Chapter 4 and the question how to detect outliers ist dealt with in Chapter 5.NEWLINENEWLINENEWLINEThe subsequent chapters deal with the application of \(T^2\) during the operational phase of a process. Chapter 6 discusses the question how to choose the error probabilities and Chapters 7 and 8 contain a detailed discussion on the interpretation of \(T^2\) signals in the bivariate and the general case by means of a decomposition technique. Chapter 9 treats various topics related to improving sensitivity of \(T^2\) charts, for instance with respect to small and abrupt changes. It follows an investigation of \(T^2\) charts in the presence of autocorrelation. The book is concluded by extending the \(T^2\) techniques to the case of batch processes.NEWLINENEWLINENEWLINEFor improving and simplifying understanding, many graphical representations, examples and case studies are used, moreover a CD-ROM for demonstration of multivariate techniques in statistical process control is included.
