to facilitate a comprehensive whole population visual acuity screening, a 1-meter vision screener “e” chart was prepared to be used in the person-by-person household visual acuity examination by non-expert health workers. the chart is designed to be used in measuring visual acuity from a distance of one meter. the scaling is in terms of-log mar (logarithm of minimum angle of resolution) with a ...

growth chart is the best measure for weight monitoring of children. most factors that affect child heath show their effect on child weight. this cross sectional and descriptive analytical study was achieved to estimate malnutrition prevalence and effective factors in children under 5 years old in rural area of khoramabad province. 555 girls and 570 boys were chosen from health houses by cluster...

The wafer defects influence the yield of a wafer. The integrated circuits (IC) manufacturers usually use a Poisson distribution based c-chart to monitor the lot-to-lot wafer defects. As the wafer size increases, defects on wafer tend to cluster. When the c-chart is used, the clustered defects frequently cause erroneous results. The main objective of this study is to develop a hierarchical adapt...

a manufacturing process cannot be released to production until it has been proven to be stable. also, we cannot begin to talk about process capability until we have demonstrated stability in our process. this means that the process variation is the result of random causes only and all assignable or special causes have been removed. in complicated manufacturing processes, such as drilling proces...

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...

Abstract:
 In many real-world applications, the data to be used in a control charting method are not crisp since they approximated due environmental uncertainties, these situations, fuzzy numbers and linguistic variables grab such uncertainties. That is why use of chart, which used, justified. As an exponentially weighted moving average (EWMA) scheme usually detect small shifts, this paper ...
