A multivariate adaptive cumulative sum control chart based on machine learning approach, support vector regression with applications
摘要
To effectively monitor nonlinear multivariate processes, this paper proposes a robust Multivariate Adaptive Cumulative Sum (MACUSUM) control chart utilizing Support Vector Regression (SVR) residuals. The proposed method combines Principal Component Analysis (PCA) with a memory-type control mechanism to boost sensitivity to small and moderate changes in the processes. Its efficacy is assessed by Average Run Length (ARL), Standard Deviation of Run Length (SDRL), Standard Error of Run Length (SERL), and Quantile Run Length (QRL). Monte Carlo simulations conducted in MATLAB demonstrate that the proposed method enables faster, more accurate detection of aberrant signals. It effectively captures essential information from operational datasets to wind turbines in energy production systems, part manufacturing datasets concerning operators’ performance, and film thickness measurements in semiconductor manufacturing. The MACUSUM method, built on PCA, aims to enhance process performance in energy production by utilizing wind turbine output data. Additionally, MACUSUM, in combination with SVR, is designed to improve industrial processes. This methodology focuses on capturing operators’ performance by applying it to Part-manufacturing data and Film-thickness datasets in semiconductor manufacturing systems.
