Control charts are used to determine whether or not a manufacturing or business process is in a state of statistical control. Various schemes of the standard (Shewhart) X chart for autocorrelated data at sample sizes of 2 and 3 are developed and compared with the schemes of the same chart for IID data at various process shifts in the process mean. It is clear from the comparison that the in-con...

For a class of vector-valued non-Gaussian stationary processes, we develop the Cressie-Read power-divergence (CR) statistic approach which has been proposed for the i.i.d. case. The CR statistic includes empirical likelihood as a special case. Therefore, by adopting this CR statistic approach, the theory of estimation and testing based on empirical likelihood is greatly extended. We use an exte...

The stochastic dynamics of randomly asymmetric fully connected Ising systems is studied. We solve analytically the particularly simple case of fully asymmetric systems. We calculate the relaxation time of the autocorrelation function and show that the system remains paramagnetic even at zero temperature {T=O). The ferromagnetic phase is only slightly afFected by the asymmetry, and the paramagne...

A sequence is called perfect if its autocorrelation function is a delta function. In this paper, we give a new definition of autocorrelation function: generalized even and odd periodic autocorrelation, and generalized even and odd periodic cyclically conjugated autocorrelation. In particular, we study a special case of autocorrelation function called cyclically conjugated autocorrelation functi...

Military applications that use adaptive optics (AO) often require a point source beacon at the target to measure and correct for wavefront aberrations introduced by atmospheric turbulence. However, turbulence prevents the formation of such a point beacon. The extended beacons that are created instead have finite spatial extents and exhibit varying degrees of spatial coherence. Modeling these ex...
