Statistical techniques are effective and powerful means of quantifying the variability of processes, analyzing this variability with reference to product requirements, and eliminating this variability in product manufacturing. Many process capability indices have been effectively and widely used to determine whether the quality of a process meets preset targets. However, conventional process capability indices cannot be applied to assess the entire process capability of a product family with nominal-the-best specifications. This work presents a novel process capability index (CppT), which takes into account all family members. The index Cpp is a simple transformation from index Cpm, and CppT provides additional, individual information concerning the accuracy and precision of a process. Vännman’s (δ, γ)-plot [Vännman and Deleryd, Quality and Reliability Engineering International 15(3): 213–217 (1999)] is revised to compare the process capabilities of family members under both 100% inspection and sampling plans. Examples are provided to demonstrate the method’s practical application. 相似文献

Process capability indices have been proposed in the manufacturing industry to provide numerical measures on process reproduction
capability, which are effective tools for quality assurance and guidance for process improvement. In process capability analysis,
the usual practice for testing capability indices from sample data are based on traditional distribution frequency approach.
Bayesian statistical techniques are an alternative to the frequency approach. Shiau, Chiang and Hung (1999) applied Bayesian
method to index Cpm and the index Cpk but under the restriction that the process mean μ equals to the midpoint of the two specification limits, m. We note that this restriction is a rather impractical assumption for most factory applications, since in this case Cpk will reduce to Cp. In this paper, we consider testing the most popular capability index Cpk for general situation – no restriction on the process mean based on Bayesian approach. The results obtained are more general
and practical for real applications. We derive the posterior probability, p, for which the process under investigation is capable and propose accordingly a Bayesian procedure for capability testing.
To make this Bayesian procedure practical for in-plant applications, we tabulate the minimum values of Ĉpk for which the posterior probability p reaches desirable confidence levels with various pre-specified capability levels. 相似文献

Process capability indices, such as C
pk
, have been widely used in the manufacturing industry to provide common quantitative measures for process performance. The
index C
pk
only provides an approximate rather than an exact measure of the process yield. To obtain an exact measure of the process
yield, Boyles proposed a yield index S
pk
. Capability measures for processes with single stream have been investigated extensively; however, multiple streams processes
often occur in practice. Bothe presented a capability index for multiple streams process. In the present paper, a new index
that is able to provide an exact measure of yield for a multiple streams process is developed. Three examples are given for
illustration. From the results of the yield measure in the three examples, the conventional approach, using the arithmetic
average of the estimated yield indices of all streams, will certainly over-estimate the process yield. 相似文献

There are many industrial product characteristics are desired to be the bigger the best and the smaller the best. The two
well-know processes capability indices C
pl and C
pu, which measure larger-the-better and smaller-the-better process capabilities. Obviously, the formulae for the two indices
C
pl and C
pu are easy to understand and straightforward to apply. Thus, indices C
pl and C
pu have been utilized by a number of Japanese companies and the U.S. automotive industry by Ford Motor Company. Boyles (1991,
Journal of Quality Technology. 23: 17–26) and Spring (1995, Total Quality Management 6(3): 427–438.) point out that as soon as
and S control charts are in statistical control, the control charts of process capability indices can be used to monitor the quality
of process. In the previous, we know that if the process is not in control, the process capability index control chart can
be used to monitor the differences of process capability, and as soon as the process is in control the stable process capability
can be identified. Therefore, process capability index control chart not only can be used to monitor the stability of process’s
quality but also can be used to monitor the quality of process. Since Boyles (1991, Journal of Quality Technology 23: 17–26.) and Spiring (1995, Total Quality Management 6(1): 21–33.) had had research about control chart of the bilateral specification index C
pm., but there are many kinds of products, which meet unilateral quality specification. Therefore, we will construct the control
chart of unilateral specification index C
pl and C
pu to monitor and evaluate the stability of process and process capability. 相似文献

Implementing lifetime performance index for the pareto lifetime businesses of the service industries
Process capability analysis is an effective means of measuring process performance and potential capability. In the service
industries, process capability indices (PCIs) are utilized to assess whether business quality meets the required level. Hence,
the performance index C
L
is used as a means of measuring business performance, where L is the lower specification limit. In the technology of data transformation, this study constructs a uniformly minimum variance
unbiased estimator (UMVUE) of C
L
based on the right type II censored sample from the pareto distribution. The UMVUE of C
L
is then utilized to develop a novel hypothesis testing procedure in the condition of known L. Finally, we give one practical example and the Monte Carlo simulation to assess the behavior of this test statistic for
testing null hypothesis under given significance level. Moreover, the managers can then employ the new testing procedure to
determine whether the business performance adheres to the required level. 相似文献

Pearn et al. (1999) considered a capability index C
′′
pmk, a new generalization of C
pmk, for processes with asymmetric tolerances. In this paper, we provide a comparison between C
′′
pmk and other existing generalizations of C
pmk on the accuracy of measuring process performance for processes with asymmetric tolerances. We show that the new generalization
C
′′
pmk is superior to other existing generalizations of C
pmk. Under the assumption of normality, we derive explicit forms of the cumulative distribution function and the probability
density function of the estimated index . We show that the cumulative distribution function and the probability density function of the estimated index can be expressed in terms of a mixture of the chi-square distribution and the normal distribution. The explicit forms of
the cumulative distribution function and the probability density function considerably simplify the complexity for analyzing
the statistical properties of the estimated index .

Based on the exponential and Poisson characteristics of the Poisson process, in this work we present some characterizations
of the Poisson process as a renewal process. More precisely, let γt be the residual life at time t of the renewal process A={A(t),t≥0 }, under suitable condition, we prove that if Var(γt)=E
2 (γt),∀t≥0, then A is a Poisson process. Secondly, we show that if Var (A(t)) is proportional to E (A(t)), then A is a Poisson process also, and Var (A(t))=E (A(t)).

Process capability indices have been widely used in the manufacturing industry. Those capability indices, quantifying process
potential and performance, are important for any successful quality improvement activities and quality program implementation.
Because of the simplicity and easy of understanding, the precision index Cp has gained its popularity for measuring process consistency. However, the quality of data on the process characteristics
relies very much on the gauge measurement. Conclusions about capability of the process just only based on the single numerical
value of the index are not reliable. In this paper, we not only conduct the performance of the index Cp with gauge measurement errors, but also present adjusted confidence interval bounds and critical values for capability testing
purpose of Cp with unavoidable measurement errors. Our research would help practitioners to determine whether the factory processes meet
the capability requirement, and make more reliable decisions. 相似文献

Process capability indices have been proposed to the manufacturing industry for measuring process reproduction capability.
The C
pm index takes into account the degree of process targeting (centering), which essentially measures process performance based
on average process loss. To properly and accurately estimate the capability index, numerous conventional approaches have been
proposed to obtain lower limits of the classical confidence intervals (CLCLs) for providing process capability information.
In particular, lower confidence limits (LCLs) not only provide critical information regarding process performance but are
used to determine if an improvement was made in reducing the nonconforming percent and the process expected loss. However,
the conventional approach lacks for exact confidence intervals for C
pm involving unknown parameters which is a notable shortcoming. To remedy this, the method of generalized confidence intervals
(GCIs) is proposed as an extension of classical confidence intervals (CCIs). For evaluating practical applications, two lower
limits of generalized confidence intervals (GLCLs) for C
pm using generalized pivotal quantities (GPQs) are considered, (i) to assess the minimum performance of one manufacturing process/one
supplier, and (ii) to assess the smallest performance of several manufacturing processes/several suppliers for equal as well
as unequal process variances. 相似文献

The MSA combines estimates of the variations of repeatability and reproducibility and is mainly analyzed by experimental design.
The variations of personnel, measurement equipment, and the part itself can be analyzed via the data obtained to improve the
capability of the measurement system. MSA of both QS9000 and ISO/TS16949 defines GR&R acceptable criteria. GR&R of the MSA
in QS9000 is determined by the Precision-to-Tolerance (P/T) value, the percentage of the measurement system variations to
the deviation during the manufacturing process or to the part tolerance. If the P/T value is less than 10%, the accuracy of
the measurement system is acceptable. If the P/T value falls between 10 and 30%, acceptance of the accuracy of the measurement
system is up to the company. When the P/T value is greater than 30%, precision of the measurement system will not be accepted.
The aforementioned GR&R acceptance criteria were established by three major automobile companies of the US according to their
past experiences. As the capability index C
pm reflects both process yield and process loss, we use C
pm to set a proper range of GR&R acceptable criteria. If the P/T value is not within the acceptable range, the measurement system
is required for modification. If the P/T value is within the acceptable range, The process capability can be enhanced by improving
the manufacturing process. 相似文献

The process capability index C
pm
, which considers the process variance and departure of the process mean from the target value, is important in the manufacturing
industry to measure process potential and performance. This paper extends its applications to calculate the process capability
index [(C)\tilde]pm{\tilde {C}_{pm} } of fuzzy numbers. In this paper, the α-cuts of fuzzy observations are first derived based on various values of α. The membership function of fuzzy process capability index [(C)\tilde]pm{\tilde {C}_{pm} } is then constructed based on the α-cuts of fuzzy observations. An example is presented to demonstrate how the fuzzy process capability index [(C)\tilde]pm{\tilde {C}_{pm} } is interpreted. When the quality characteristic cannot be precisely determined, the proposed method provides the most possible
value and spread of fuzzy process capability index [(C)\tilde]pm{\tilde {C}_{pm} }. With crisp data, the proposed method reduces to the classical method of process capability index C

In the process of coding open-ended questions, the evaluation of interjudge reliability is a critical issue. In this paper,
using real data, the behavior of three coefficients of reliability among coders, Cohen’s K, Krippendorff’s α and Perreault and Leigh’s I
r
are patterned, in terms of the number of judges involved and the categories of answer defined. The outcome underlines the
importance of both variables in the valuations of interjudge reliability, as well as the higher adequacy of Perreault and

Process yield is the most common criterion used in the manufacturing industry for measuring process performance. A measurement index, called Spk, has been proposed to calculate the yield for normal processes. The measurement index pk establishes the relationship between the manufacturing specifications and the actual process performance, which provides an exact measure on process yield. Unfortunately, the sampling distribution of the estimated pk is mathematically intractable. Therefore, process performance testing cannot be performed. In this paper; we consider a normal approximation to the distribution of the estimated pk, and investigate its accuracy computationally. We compare the critical values calculated from the approximate distribution with those obtained using the standard simulation technique, for various commonly used quality requirements. Extensive computational results are provided and analyzed. The investigation is useful to the practitioners for making decisions in testing process performance based on the yield. 相似文献

Given a strictly increasing continuous function φ from [0, 1] to [0, 1] and its pseudo-inverse φ[−1], conditions that φ must satisfy for Cφ(x1, . . . ,xn)=φ[−1](C(φ(x1), . . . ,φ(xn))) to be a copula for any copula C are studied. Some basic properties of the copulas obtained in this way are analyzed and
several examples of generator functions φ that can be used to construct copulas Cφ are presented. In this manner, a method to obtain from a given copula C a variety of new copulas is provided. This method
generalizes that used to construct Archimedean copulas in which the original copula C is the product copula, and it is related
with mixtures 相似文献

This study attempts to apply real options and expand the model designed by Lin and Huang [Lin, T.T., Huang, Y.T.: J. Technol.
Manage. 8(3), 59–78 (2003)], which helps venture capital (VC) companies to optimize project exit decisions. The expected discounted
factor and a jump-diffusion process combine to assess the value of a start-up company, and determine the threshold of the
exit timing of liquidation or convertibility for establishing the optimal disinvestment evaluation model for VC companies.
When the project value is below VL*V_L^\ast, the VC company carries out liquidation, but when the project value exceeds VC*V_C^\ast, the VC company performs convertibility. The project value is ranging between (VL *,VC*)\left({V_L ^\ast,V_C^\ast}\right), and the best choice is holding the decision and waiting to carry out the rights of liquidation and convertibility next time.
Besides, this work attempts to identify the expected discounted time in terms of the investment time for VC companies. 相似文献

observation with a one-step predictor. It was assumed that an upper bound for the total number of outlierss
