Control chart pattern (CCP) recognition can act as a problem identification tool in any manufacturing organization. Feature-based rules in the form of decision trees have become quite popular in recent years for CCP recognition. This is because the practitioners can clearly understand how a particular pattern has been identified by the use of relevant shape features. Moreover, since the extracted features represent the main characteristics of the original data in a condensed form, it can also facilitate efficient pattern recognition. The reported feature-based decision trees can recognize eight types of CCPs using extracted values of seven shape features. In this paper, a different set of seven most useful features is presented that can recognize nine main CCPs, including mixture pattern. Based on these features, decision trees are developed using CART (classification and regression tree) and QUEST (quick unbiased efficient statistical tree) algorithms. The relative performance of the CART and QUEST-based decision trees are extensively studied using simulated pattern data. The results show that the CART-based decision trees result in better recognition performance but lesser consistency, whereas, the QUEST-based decision trees give better consistency but lesser recognition performance.
