Description
Summary:碩士 === 中原大學 === 工業工程研究所 === 96 === We consider the design of X charts, where the quality characteristic measurements are autocorrelated with and unknown marginal distribution and unknown autocorrelations, but a set of data is given. Specifically, we assume that the data process follows an ARTA (Autoregressive-To-Anything Process). Then we apply the X chart, we need to decide the value of the X-chart design parameters: the sample size n and the control limits. In practice, the data properties are unknown. Here we apply two steps to compute the ARL (Average Run Length). First, we construct an empirical distribution for a given set of data. We use the mixture of the original empirical distribution and exponential distribution (for the tails). Second, we evaluate the performance of the model-free design based on the proposed empirical distribution. The performance measurements are the in-control and out-ofcontrol average run length (ARL). The ARL is the expected number of samples (or observations if taking samples of one) required by the chart to signal.
