Abstract: | Control chart pattern recognition is an important aspect of statistical process control (SPC). The presence of unnatural patterns indicates that a process is affected by assignable causes, and corrective actions should be taken. This paper describes two types of pattern recognizers based on different neural network architectures: a multilayer perception trained by back propagation and a modular neural network. Identification of unnatural patterns can greatly narrow the causes that must be investigated, and thus the diagnostic search could be reduced in length. |
