GVcontrol: Control Chart for the generalized variance |S|

In IAcsSPCR: Data and Functions for "An Intro. to Accept. Samp. & SPC/R"

Description

This function makes a control chart of the generalized variance, |S|.

Usage

GVcontrol(DF,m,n,p)

Arguments

DF	input - this is dataframe containing the subgrouped multivariate data. One line for each observation and one column for each variable or quality characteristic being monitored. The first column is a subgroup indicator numbered from 1 to m, with n repeats of each. There should be m x n rows and p + 1 columns.
m	input this is the number of observations in each subgroup
n	input this is the known (or estimate from a Phase I study) mean vector of the variables
p	input this is the number of quality characteristics

Value

returned list containing the upper control limit, the covariance matrix (S), the generalized variance (|S|), the mean vector (mu), and a vector of the generalized variances (|Si|, i=1,2,...m) within each subgroup.
