Abstract
The topic of this chapter is the control of a machining process through inspecting the units it has produced. Today’s advanced sensor technology notwithstanding, it often remains prohibitively expensive or infeasible to do online direct inspection. This is because it is very difficult to develop a sensor that is highly sensitive to the parameters it is supposed to monitor while simultaneously insensitive to other parameters and rugged enough to withstand the harsh environment in which it is used; refer to [23]. An indirect off-line inspection remains the predominant practical means for process control and revision.
