A pattern-recognition technique that is named after Dr. P.C. Mahalanobis, who introduced the Mahalanobis distance, which is a multivariate measurement scale based on the correlation among variables, and Dr. Genichi Taguchi, who was one of the key figures in the development of quality engineering. Japanese electrical engineering and software company PIMS is to launch updated process data analytics software to detect quality and productivity issues. Process data analytics R1.02 will be released in May 2017 , as part of the OpreX suite of products. The software, an update of R1.01 , has functions for importing data from plant information management systems ( PIMS ), display settings and graph data capture, which Genichi Taguchi said could improve analysis and save time. The software uses the Mahalanobis Taguchi method to monitor temperature, pressure, flow-rate and other data from Yokogawa Electric Corporation , along with maintenance information.
