In most of advanced processes, quality of a final product depends on the several quality characteristic in the previous stages. This is called a cascade property in multi-stage processes. On the other hand, sometimes the quality of a process or product is characterized by a relationship between a response variable and one or more explanatory variable(s).This relation is called profile. In some ...

In this paper, the general linear profile-monitoring problem in multistage processes is addressed. An approach based on the U statistic is first proposed to remove the effect of the cascade property in multistage processes. Then, the 2 T chart and an LRT-based scheme on the adjusted parameters are constructed for Phase-I monitoring of the parameters of general linear profiles in each stage. Usi...

Biological networks play a key role in determining biological function and therefore, an understanding of their structure and dynamics is of central interest in systems biology. In Boolean models of such networks, the status of each molecule is either "on" or "off" and along with the molecules interact with each other, their individual status changes from "on" to "off" or vice-versa and the sys...

Aim of this study is introduction one Approach for Monitoring a Two-Stage Process by Profile Quality Characteristic in the Second Stage. Nowadays, many processes are multistage and such processes often depend on each other. The implication is; the specification features for the product that are used to monitor the quality of that product and are usually assessed in one stage of the process, not...

Fine-grained named entity classi cation or FG-NEC refers to the process of classifying a set of named entities from naturally occurring texts to the maximum granularity. It is essentially di erent from the traditional coarse-grained NEC (PER, LOC, ORG) in that it requires deep semantic analysis and the FG semantic classes are highly ambiguous. While research has been conducted in an application...

Recently, signalling gradients in cascades of two-state reaction-diffusion systems were described as a model for understanding key biochemical mechanisms that underlie development and differentiation processes in the Drosophila embryo. Diffusion-trapping at the exterior of the cell membrane triggers the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) cascade to relay an appropriate signal from the memb...

the ball and beam system is one of the most popular laboratory setups for control education. in this paper, we design a fuzzy pd cascade controller for a ball and beam system using asexual reproduction optimization (aro) technique. the ball & beam system consists of a servo motor, a grooved beam, and a rolling ball. this system utilizes a servo motor to control ball’s position on the beam. chan...

Monitoring the reliability of products in both the manufacturing and service processes is of main concern in today’s competitive market. To this end, statistical process control has been widely used to control the reliability-related quality variables. The so-far surveillance schemes have addressed processes with independent quality characteristics. In multistage processes, however, the cascade...
