During the last two decades, many new methods have appeared in statistical process monitoring with synthetic-type control charts being a prominent constituent. These became popular due to their simplicity and proclaimed excellent change point detection performance. Synthetic are nothing more than application of well-known long established runs rules. We show that better performance can be obtai...

In this paper, we proposed a new quality control chart for the sample mean based on a cost free and anti wasting sampling unit’s scheme known by the folded ranked set sampling (FRSS). The new control charts were compared with the classical control charts when the data obtained by using simple random sampling (SRS) and ranked set sampling (RSS). A simulation study showed that the FRSS based cont...

An attractive way to control attribute data from high quality processes is to wait till r ≥ 1 failures have occurred. The choice of r in such negative binomial charts is dictated by how much the failure rate is supposed to change during Outof-Control. However, these results have been derived for the case of homogeneous data. Especially in health care monitoring, (groups of) patients will often ...
