Cluster analysis Control charts Mathematics Process control Statistical process control Statistics The deviation of a process from its controlled status may be incurred by certain different assignable causes. In an example of component machining, the process under consideration is to work out...

...Reay‐Chen Wang; Chung‐Ho Chen Considers the problem of determining economic statistical np‐control chart designs under the fuzzy environment of closely satisfying type I and II errors. Goes on to model the problem as fuzzy mathematical programming, and uses a heuristic method to obtaining...
