Abstract :
In this paper, we investigate the effect of parameter estimation from in-control Phase I samples on the in-control and out-of-control performance of the four Phase II control charts used for monitoring multivariate multiple linear profiles. These methods are evaluated in terms of out-of-control performance using corrected limits. The monitoring approaches investigated are then compared using the statistical properties of the ARL distribution. Furthermore, two optimization models are proposed for finding the optimum number of Phase I samples needed to achieve proper parameter estimations of desired accuracy and solved by using a novel hybrid simulation algorithm named HBSO.
