This study proposes a quality control method for multivariate manufacturing processes that are based on an improved Mahalanobis–Taguchi System (IMTS). The MTS has no data distribution assumptions and identifies anomalies through the Mahalanobis distance (MD). However, a covariance distance can consider the correlation between variables. Further, to address the shortcomings of the MTS in feature selection and threshold determination. A joint optimization model is proposed in this paper. Under this approach, the IMTS is employed to perform composite analyses on multiple quality characteristics and reduce dimensionality to identify abnormalities and the key quality characteristics that lead to anomalies. Further, various models are compared to construct the optimal non-parametric prediction models for each key quality characteristic. Finally, a conceptual model of process parameter optimization is proposed, which improves the Taguchi method to obtain the optimal combination of process parameters and their importance ranking, as the basis for process adjustment. By applying the proposed method, results show that the IMTS has an abnormality identification rate of 99.5%, which is higher than other methods such as MTS, support vector machine (SVM), back propagation neural network (BPNN), fast correlation-based filter solution SVM (FCBF-SVM) and sequential backward selection BPNN (SBS-BPNN). The dimensionality reduction rate is 0.5, which is higher than MTS, SVM, BPNN, and SBS-BPNN methods. The random forest (RF) algorithm is used for accurate predictions of all five key quality characteristics, the improved Taguchi method guided adjustments to manufacturing processes objectively, effectively, and economically.","PeriodicalId":20846,"journal":{"name":"Quality Engineering","volume":"35 1","pages":"413 - 429"},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2022-12-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48762848","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Although sequential analysis originated in ballistics testing for the Department of Defense (DoD)and it is widely used in other disciplines, it is underutilized in the DoD. Expanding the use of sequential analysis may save money and reduce test time. In this paper, we introduce sequential analysis, describe its current and potential uses in operational test and evaluation (OT&E), and present a method for applying it to the test and evaluation of defense systems. We evaluate the proposed method by performing simulation studies and applying the method to a case study. Additionally, we discuss challenges to address for sequential analysis in OT&E.

Traditional RPD adopts offline design, that is, the optimal level of parameter combination is fixed by one-time modeling throughout the production process. This strategy is obviously unreasonable. Online RPD breaks through the limitation of traditional offline design, which can update the optimal setting by utilizing the new sample when the current optimal setting of controllable factors is not suitable. However, there are still some problems in the current version of online RPD, such as poor data fitting ability of response surface model and low efficiency of parameter design. In this paper, a new online RPD method based on Gaussian process (GP) is proposed. The GP model is used to construct the response surface, which has the capacity of dealing with high-dimensional nonlinear data. But traditional GP method adopts batch learning, it cannot update the model online with new samples. So this paper proposes an incremental Gaussian process model (IGP), which can update the response surface in real-time. In the proposed IGP based online robust parameter design method (IGP-RPD), an effective optimization strategy is used to find the optimal setting of controllable factors, and a reasonable selection criterion is used to determine the noise factor setting for the next stage. The optimal setting of the controllable factor in the previous stage and the currently observed noise factor are used as input, and the corresponding quality characteristic is taken as the output. The input and output form a new sample to update the response surface model. In this way, the RPD process can be redone continuously until the desirable optimal setting of the controllable factor is found. Three cases are used to verify the IGP-RPD method and compare it with the existing methods. The experiments manifest that the IGP-RPD method has better performance in both accuracy and efficiency.","PeriodicalId":20846,"journal":{"name":"Quality Engineering","volume":"35 1","pages":"430 - 443"},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2022-12-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45134333","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

(2022) I read with interest the above paper that was a systematic literature review whose stated aim was “to assess the state of the art in Gauge R&R [measurement assessment] studies.” Given that goal, I was disappointed that the review paper failed to even mention any of the following proposed improvements to the traditional design and analysis of gauge R&R measurement assessment studies. This includes, so called, augmented assessment plans, utilizing baseline data, and selecting parts for the measurement study using leveraging from the baseline (Browne 2009a,b; Browne et al. 2009a,b, 2010; Stevens et al. 2010, 2013, 2015). These ideas provide much more efficient measurement assessment studies with no increase in cost. As such, they should be considered as desirable improvements to the traditional Gauge R&R studies. To make a simple comparison, consider the traditional Gauge R&R study where 10 parts are selected at random from the production process and measured 6 times each (here we assume an automated measurement system, so we don’t consider operators). If we also assume we have a large baseline of once measured parts (commonly freely available since these data are often collected for some other reason), an alternate measurement assessment plan is to use leveraging and select 10 parts with either large or small values from the baseline and measure them each 6 times. Comparing these two plans (that require the same number of total measurements in the assessment study) we see that the leveraged plan (that takes into account the baseline values for the selected parts) is much more efficient than the traditional gauge R&R plan. The reduction in standard deviation of an estimator for the ratio of the measurement variation to the overall variation is between about 10–45%, with larger reductions when the actual measurement variation is larger.","PeriodicalId":20846,"journal":{"name":"Quality Engineering","volume":"35 1","pages":"546 - 546"},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2022-12-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43090551","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
