چکیده

In random event generator (REG) experiments yielding anomalous results, any evolution of effect sizes over extended runs of data collection could, in principle, give some insight into the fundamental mechanism of the binary probability distortions. Retrospective examination of large individual and collective databases acquired over many years of previous study proves only marginally capable of distinguishing any such functional dependence on run length from a constant effect size model, which does little to narrow the phenomenological possibilities. However, an unanticipated ancillary feature of this data treatment is the emergence of a suggestively small blockwise variance in the anomalous effect sizes, possibly indicative of sequential correlations in the data streams that are not present in the baseline data. If real, such correlations would imply that the mechanism of the anomalous effect is more complicated than a simple change of elementary binary probabilities, although the set of possible models is so large that no specific inference can be drawn at this time.

A two-sided Bernoulli-based CUSUM control chart with autocorrelated observations

Usually, in monitoring a proportion p < /em>, the binary observations are considered independent; however, in many real cases, there is a continuous stream of autocorrelated binary observations in which a two-state Markov chain model is applied with first-order dependence. On the other hand, the Bernoulli CUSUM control chart which is not robust to autocorrelation can be applied two-sided co...

A New Optimization Model for Designing Acceptance Sampling Plan Based on Run Length of Conforming Items

The purpose of this article is to present an optimization model for designing an acceptance sampling plan based on cumulative sum of run length of conforming items. The objective is to minimize the total loss including both the producer and consumer losses. The concept of minimum angle method is applied to consider producer and consumer risks in the optimization model. Also the average number o...

On the Performance of a Multivariate Control Chart in Multistage Environment

In this paper, a Multivariate-Multistage Quality Control (MVMSQC) procedure is investigated. In this procedure discriminate analysis, linear regression and control chart theory are combined to control the means of correlated characteristics of a process, which involves several serial stages. Furthermore, the quality of the output at each stage depends on the output of the previous stage as well...

EFFECT OF LOCATION OF EXPLANATORY VARIABLE ON MONITORING POLYNOMIAL QUALITY PROFILES

The quality is typically modeled as the univariate or multivariate distribution of quality characteristic/s. In recent applications of statistical process control, quality profiles in which the relationship between a response and explanatory variable/s is captured and monitored are increasingly used to model the quality. Several techniques have been developed to enhance the speed of detecting c...
