In rQCC: Robust Quality Control Chart

Robust attributes control charts with balanced/unbalanced samples

Description

Constructs the robust g and h attributes control charts with balanced/unbalanced samples.

Usage

racc (x, gamma, type=c("g","h","t"), parameter, gEstimator=c("cdf", "MM"), 
      tModel=c("E", "W"), location.shift = 0, sigmaFactor=3, nk)

Arguments

x	a numeric vector of the number of nonconforming units.
gamma	a numeric value for a inlier proportion. gamma should be between 0 and 1 (smaller value means more trimming).
type	a character string specifying the type of control chart.
parameter	a known Bernoulli parameter value for the g and h charts. If not known, it is estimated. For more details, refer to vignette("racc", package="rQCC").
gEstimator	a method for estimating the Bernoulli parameter for g and h charts. "cdf" is based on the memoryless property and "MM" is based on the truncated geometric distribution.
tModel	Probability model for t chart. "E" for Exponential and "W" for Weibull.
location.shift	a known location shift parameter value for g and h charts.
sigmaFactor	a factor for the standard deviation (σ). For example, the American Standard uses "3*sigma" limits (0.27% false alarm rate), while the British Standard uses "3.09*sigma" limits (0.20% false alarm rate).
nk	sample size for Phase-II. If nk is missing, the average of the subsample sizes is used.

Details

racc constructs the attributes control charts for nonconforming units (p and np charts) and for nonconformities per unit (c and u charts).

Value

racc returns an object of class "racc". The function summary is used to obtain and print a summary of the results and the function plot is used to plot the control chart.
