Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsDerivation of the Limits for Control Chart Using the Median Absolute Deviation for Monitoring Non-Normal ProcessK. S. Adekeye, P. I. AzubuikeProblem statement: The Shewhart and S control charts, in the literature, were combined to evaluate the stability of a process. These charts were based on the fundamental assumption of normality of the quality characteristics under investigation. Approach: In practice, the normality assumption was often violated by real life data, therefore, use of the Shewhart and S control charts on real … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 8, Issue 1 · 24 Dec 2011 · 8,435 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractApplication of Multi Task Analysis Model Based on EEG Features in the Study of the Correlation between Depression and Sleep Disorders in College StudentsFeng MaWith the improvement of multi-modal technology, research on depression recognition combining multiple biological signal features has been increasing. Electroencephalogram signals reflect brain activity, and by analyzing their characteristics, the accuracy and stability of depression recognition can be effectively improved. Therefore, this study proposes a correlation analysis between depression and sleep disorders in college students based on electroencephalogram feature analysis, innovatively … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 21, Issue 4 · 2 Feb 2026 · 1,994 accessesView PDFCite
Literature ReviewOpen accessIn the abstractA Discussion of the Synergy and Divergence between Lean Six Sigma and Person-Centred Improvement SciencesSeán Paul Teeling, Jan Dewing, Deborah BaldieBackground: This paper discusses if and how the improvement sciences of Lean Six Sigma and person-centred approaches can be melded or blended in the health care context. The discussion highlights the relationship between each approach to improvement science in terms of their respective purposes, intentions and probable outcomes; positioning these as either synergies or divergences. Comparison of the key theoretical … …International Journal of Research in Nursing, Vol. 11, Issue 1 · 13 Apr 2020 · 33,445 accessesView PDFCite
