Stable And Unstable Pattern Recognition Using D-2 And Svm: A Multivariate Approach

Control charts are used to visually identify the signals that define the behavior of industrial processes in univariate cases. However, whenever the statistical quality of more than one critical variable needs to be monitored simultaneously, the procedure becomes much more complicated. This paper presents a methodology on multivariate pattern recognition using the Mahalanobis distance (D2) and the Support Vector Machine (SVM) technique to recognise two multivariate patterns. The relevance of the study lies in the monitoring of the variables while considering the correlation between them and the effects of interchangeably using a stable multivariate case against an unstable pattern that results in recognition rates up to 91.6%.
