Abstract:
In today's industry, control charts are widely used to monitor production process. The abnormal patterns of a quality control chart could reveal problems that occur in the process. In the recent years, as an alternative of the traditional process quality management methods, such as Shewhart Statistical Process Control (SPC), Artificial Neural Networks (ANN) have been widely used to recognize the abnormal pattern of control charts. Various types of patterns are observed in control charts. Identification of these Control Chart Patterns (CCPs) can provide clues to potential quality problems in the manufacturing process. Each type of control chart pattern has its own geometric shape and various related features can represent this shape. Feature-based approaches can facilitate efficient pattern recognition since extracted shape features represent the main characteristics of the patterns in a condensed form. The objective of this study was to evaluate the relative performance of a feature-based CCP recognizer compared with the raw data-based recognizer. The study focused on recognition of six commonly researched CCPs plotted on the Shewhart X-bar chart. The ANN-based CCP recognizer trained using the nine shape features resulted in significantly better performance and generalization compared with the raw data-based recognizer.
