Phase II monitoring of linear profiles with random explanatory variable under Bayesian framework
( Elsevier , 2019 , Article)Linear profiles monitoring have been successfully implemented in many industrial applications. The design structures of control charts for profiles monitoring are mostly based on two major classifications namely Classical ... -
An ensemble neural network framework for improving the detection ability of a base control chart in non-parametric profile monitoring
( Elsevier , 2022 , Article)Profile monitoring is a challenging issue in statistical process control (SPC). It aims to use a functional relationship between a response variable and one or more explanatory variable(s) to summarize the quality of a ... -
Employing evolutionary artificial neural network in risk-adjusted monitoring of surgical performance
( Springer Science and Business Media Deutschland GmbH , 2023 , Article)Various applications of control charts in the field of health-care monitoring and surveillance can be found in the literature. As one of the major categories, monitoring binary outcomes of cardiac surgeries with the aim ... -
Enhancing the detection ability of control charts in profile monitoring by adding RBF ensemble model
( Springer Science and Business Media Deutschland GmbH , 2022 , Article)While numerous contributions and applications have been extended in profile monitoring, little attention has been paid to employing machine learning techniques in development of control charts. In this paper, a novel control ... -
Enhanced adaptive multivariate EWMA and CUSUM charts for process mean
( Taylor and Francis Ltd. , 2021 , Article)The multivariate charts are mostly used to simultaneously monitor several quality characteristics in manufacturing processes. In this study, we enhance the sensitivities of the recently proposed adaptive multivariate EWMA ... -
Contributing risk factors of common psychiatric disorders in the Pakistani population
( Springer Science and Business Media Deutschland GmbH , 2022 , Article)With an increasing incidence of psychiatric disorders worldwide, there is a need for a better understanding of the population-specific contributing risk factors that are associated with common psychiatric conditions. This ... -
New efficient exponentially weighted moving average variability charts based on auxiliary information
( John Wiley and Sons Ltd , 2020 , Article)Control chart is a well-known tool for monitoring the performance of an ongoing process. The variability of a process is an important parameter that may deteriorate the process performance if it is not taken care on time. ... -
Efficient bivariate EWMA charts for monitoring process dispersion
( John Wiley and Sons Ltd , 2020 , Article)To ensure high quality standards of a process, the application of control charts to monitor process performance has become a regular routine. Multivariate charts are a preferred choice in the presence of more than one ... -
Efficient monitoring of coefficient of variation with an application to chemical reactor process
( John Wiley and Sons Ltd , 2021 , Article)Control chart is a useful tool to monitor the performance of the industrial or production processes. Control charts are mostly adopted to detect unfavorable variations in process location (mean) and dispersion (standard ... -
An improved adaptive EWMA control chart for monitoring time between events with application in health sector
( John Wiley and Sons Ltd , 2023 , Article)Nonconforming events rarely occur in high-quality processes, and the time between events ((Formula presented.)) is likely to be followed by a skewed distribution, such as an exponential distribution. This paper proposes ... -
The use of fast initial response features on the homogeneously weighted moving average chart with estimated parameters under the effect of measurement errors
( John Wiley and Sons Ltd , 2021 , Article)Fast initial response (FIR) features are generally used to improve the sensitivity of memory-type control charts by shrinking time-varying control limits in the earlier stage of the monitoring regime. This paper incorporates ... -
A non-parametric double homogeneously weighted moving average control chart under sign statistic
( John Wiley and Sons Ltd , 2021 , Article)In practical situations, the underlying process distribution sometimes deviates from normality and their distribution is partially or completely unknown. In that instance, rather than staying with/depending on the conventional ... -
Monitoring multivariate coefficient of variation for high-dimensional processes
( John Wiley and Sons Ltd , 2022 , Article)Multivariate coefficient of variation (MCV) charts are effective tools for monitoring process relative variability. They are developed on the assumption that the process subgroup size available for monitoring the MCV ... -
Bayesian EWMA control charts based on Exponential and transformed Exponential distributions
( John Wiley and Sons Ltd , 2021 , Article)In this paper, we proposed the Bayesian exponentially weighted moving average (EWMA) control charts for mean under the nonnormal life time distributions. We used the time between events data which follow the Exponential ... -
Improved simple linear profiling method with application to chemical gas sensors
( John Wiley and Sons Ltd , 2021 , Article)In industrial applications, a functional relationship between the quality characteristics of interest is well represented by profile functions. These are often characterized by linear or nonlinear relationships that depend ... -
Auxiliary-information-based efficient variability control charts for Phase I of SPC
( John Wiley and Sons Ltd , 2020 , Article)The inclusion of correlated auxiliary variables into the monitoring scheme of quality characteristic of interest has gained notable attention in recent statistical process control (SPC) literature. Several authors have ... -
Novel Polyepoxysuccinic Acid-Grafted Polyacrylamide as a Green Corrosion Inhibitor for Carbon Steel in Acidic Solution.
( American Chemical Society , 2023 , Article)Utilizing green corrosion inhibitors has been classified among the most efficient and economical mitigation practices against metallic degradation and failure. This study aims to integrate the features of green and ... -
A comparative physicochemical property assessment and techno-economic analysis of biolubricants produced using chemical modification and additive-based routes
( Elsevier , 2022 , Article)Several edible and non-edible oil sources are currently being developed as renewable basestocks for biolubricant production. However, these feedstocks possess undesirable physicochemical properties limiting their lubricant ... -
Microalgal bioremediation of brackish aquaculture wastewater
( Elsevier , 2023 , Article)Rapid aquaculture industry development contributed to a major increase in aquaculture wastewater generation. In the context of a circular economy, aquaculture wastewater treatment should simultaneously recover nutrients ... -
Biocrude oil production from a self-settling marine cyanobacterium, Chroococcidiopsis sp., using a biorefinery approach
( Elsevier , 2023 , Article)Although the whole microalgal biomass is typically used as a feedstock for hydrothermal liquefaction (HTL), the conversion of a primary metabolite (i.e., carbohydrate) to biocrude is very low. In this study, a self-settling ...
