Parametric bootstrap process capability index control charts for both mean and dispersion

Abstract

Non-normal processes are common in practice. In this paper, we propose a novel approach to defining bootstrap process capability index (PCI) control charts to monitor the performance of in-control skew normal processes. We use a bootstrap method to calculate phase I control limits of the corresponding PCI control charts. The β-risk curves of the associated PCI control charts will be used to assess the performance of the PCI control charts. We use Monte-Carlo simulation to evaluate the performance of the proposed PCI control charts. A numerical example to illustrate the implementation of the proposed control charts.
