identification of a real time of a change in a process, when an out-of-control signal is present is significant. this may reduce costs of defective products as well as the time of exploring and fixing the cause of defects. another popular topic in the statistical process control (spc) is profile monitoring, where knowing the distribution of one or more quality characteristics may not be appropr...

when a change occurs in a process, one expects to receive a signal from a control chart as quickly as possible. upon the receipt of signal from the control chart a search for identifying the source of disturbance begins. however, searching for assignable cause around the signal time, due to the fact that the disturbance may have manifested itself into the rocess sometimes back, may not always l...

The measurement of ground control points is an important task for the absolute orientation of stereo models, for digital aerial triangulation or for the registration of satellite imagery. In the Digital Photogrammetric Systems existing today this task is usually completely performed by a human operator. There exist, however, methods, that can identify and/or localize control points or control s...

Nowadays the tenor of reports on applications of digital photogrammetric procedures consists of a unison message: processing modules of automatic image orientation are available in digital photogrammetric systems and with them the productivity is much higher than with all existing conventional photogrammetric plotters. In fact, interior and relative orientation procedures as well as automated a...

Precise identification of the time when a process has changed enables process engineers to search for a potential special cause more effectively. In this paper, we develop change point estimation methods for a Poisson process in a Bayesian framework. We apply Bayesian hierarchical models to formulate the change point where there exists a step < /div> change, a linear trend and a known multip...
