public class XmR
extends ShewhartControlChart

XmR is an XmR chart for monitoring a process using moving ranges.

The moving range control chart uses the moving range of two successive observations to measure the process variability. This control chart is used for individual measurements (sample size = 1). The moving range is defined to be mathrm{MR}_i=|x_i-x_{i-1}|. The control limits are at

bar{x}+kfrac{overline{MR}}{d_{2,2}}

where bar{x} is the mean of all of the individual observations, overline{MR} is the mean of the moving averages, and k is the value of the "ControlLimit" attribute for the line. Additionally, d_{2,n}=E(R)/sigma where R is the range of a Gaussian distribution. Therefore overline{MR}/d_{2,2} is an estimate of the standard deviation. By default, the chart contains an upper control limit line with k=3, a lower control limit line with k=-3, and a central line equal to bar{x}. Additionally control limits can be added. The method addWeco adds control limits with k = -2, -1, 1, 2.

Constructor Detail

XmR

public XmR(AxisXY axis,
           double[] x)
Creates an XmR chart given sample data.

Parameters:
axis - the AxisXY parent of this node
x - is an array containing sample data.
Method Detail

getMRBar

public double getMRBar()
Returns the expected mean of of all of the moving ranges of two observations.

Returns:
the expected mean of the moving ranges.

prePaint

public void prePaint()
Setup chart with current settings.

Overrides:
prePaint in class ChartNode

setMRBar

public void setMRBar(double mrBar)
Sets the expected mean of all of the moving ranges of two observations. This defaults to the mean of the moving ranges computed by the constructor from the data. Its default value is the computed from the data passed to the constructor.

Parameters:
mrBar - is the expected mean of the moving ranges.
