SPC: Basic Idea ? y In most SPC applications it is assumed that the quality of a process or product can be adequately represented by the distribution of a univariate quality characteristic or by the general multivariate distribution of a vector consisting of several quality characteristics (Woodall et al. 2004). Dr. Fugee Tsung, HKUST
SPC: A Different Idea ? x y In many practical situations, however, the quality of a process or product is better characterized and summarized by a relationship between a response variable and one or more explanatory variables (Woodall et al. 2004). Dr. Fugee Tsung, HKUST
A Profile Example Dr. Fugee Tsung, HKUST

Dynamics and autocorrelation • To monitor the engineering controlled process, one may consider monitoring a Dynamic T2 statistic of the form where • Xt = [ yt , xt , yt-1 , xt-1 , …, yt-L , xt-L ]T • is the covariance matrix of Xt • L is a user-specified time shift factor Tsung and Apley (2002, IIE Trans.)

Multistage Monitoring • The use of single-stage SPC can be misleading and ineffective as its measure is confounded with the cumulative effects from previous stages. • Impact of dynamics and autocorrelation due to the cumulative effects of process dynamics and inertia of serially dependent stages. • How to make use of SPC information accessible outside of the individual process to make better quality control decisions. Dr. Fugee Tsung, HKUST
Multistage Diagnosis • It is critical to trace the source of a defect found in final inspection to a root cause early in the multistage process -- Traceability (Palm et al. 1997) • How to isolate and identify the sources of an out-of-control condition by linking the current stage signal to information about earlier stages in the process • Multistage fault/fraud detection/identification through data mining and knowledge discovery.

港基應用「六個標準差」 即時見效 港基公布中期業績,港基因為應用到國際大企業最流行的管理方法︰「Six Sigma」(六個標準差,統計學用語,目的是減少生產過程中的錯誤),而在營運開支方面減少 1.4%。 究竟甚麼是六個標準差?對銀行如此有利? 六個標準差源自 1986 年美國 Motorola 公司通訊部門提出的一項嶄新作法,使公司在 1987 至 1997 年的十年推行期:每年銷售增長五倍;節省的成本更達 140 億美元。 近年因美國通用電氣(GE)大力推行六個標準差,結果使其獲利屢創新高,更讓顧客滿意度大幅提升。也因此引起品質管理界所重視,並開始蔚為風潮。 看似神效無比,相信對近年積極開源節流的本地銀行家來說,也會對這個妙用無窮的六個標準差極有興趣… -- 香港經濟日報 2002-08-05 Dr. Fugee Tsung, HKUST
A Thank You Letter… Date:Wed, September 14, 2005 11:30 am Dear Fugee, I am pleased to let you know that I have joined AIA since March this year. I am working on a Six Sigma deployment program (They call it Performance Management Program here) in AIA's six Southeast Asian operations. Insurance operations are new to me but the underlying processes and principles are very close to banks. My major responsibility is to drive and deliver performance metrics as well as project facilitation. I would like to thank you again for your guidance and sharing of Six Sigma knowledge.
