although control charts are very common to monitoring process changes, they usually do not indicate the real time of the changes. identifying the real time of the process changes is known as change-point estimation problem. there are a number of change point models in the literature however most of the existing approaches are dedicated to normal processes. in this paper we propose a novel appro...

Minerals are defined as naturally occurring, inorganic, solids with a definite chemical composition and a regular, internal crystalline structure. The keys to this definition are the chemical composition and the crystalline structure. Different chemical compositions result in different minerals. A good example is the mineral plagioclase. Plagioclase is a member of the feldspar group, but there ...

Knowledge of psychrometric properties is the basic requirement for environmental measurements and drying processes. The software GRAPSI_DRAW is capable of calculating the psychrometric properties and simulating the basic psychrometric processes with the precision of analytical methods, also showing the results in charts plotted on the computer screen.

To integrate Computer Aided systems (CA*-systems) in the area of Mechanical Engineering (ME) with other applications in the world of Computer Integrated Manufacturing (CIM), one principal approach under development is based on feature representation. It enables any CA*-system to recognize the higher-level entities { the so-called features in ME { out of a lower-data exchange format. In this pap...

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...

We present a new chart parsing method for Lambek grammars, inspired by a method for DTree grammar parsing. The formulae of a Lambek sequent are firstly converted into rules of an indexed grammar formalism, which are used in an Earley-style predictive chart algorithm. The method is non-polynomial, but performs well for practical purposes much better than previous chart methods for Lambek grammar...

OBJECTIVE Compare the performance of Lea Symbols and Sheridan Gardiner charts against the standard test chart used to determine reduced VA during vision screening among pre-schoolers. MATERIAL AND METHOD Seven hundred seventy five pre-school participated where 389 subjects were boys and 386 subjects were girls were tested using the Lea Symbols chart and the Sheridan Gardiner chart. The mean a...
