The Adaptive Exponentially Weighted Moving Average (AEWMA) control chart has the advantage of detecting in balance mixed range of mean shifts. Its performance has been studied under the assumption that the process parameters are known. Under this assumption, previous studies have shown that AEWMA provides superior statistical performance when compared to other different types of control charts....

Traditionally, an ?̄? chart is used to control the process mean and an R chart is used to control the variance. However, these charts are not sensitive to the small shifts in the processes. The adaptive charts might be considered if the aim is to detect process changes quickly. In this paper, we propose a new adaptive single control chart which integrates the exponentially weighted moving averag...

BACKGROUND Time series charts are increasingly used by clinical teams to monitor their performance, but statistical control charts are not widely used, partly due to uncertainty about which chart to use. Although there is a large literature on methods, there are few systematic comparisons of charts for detecting changes in rates of binary clinical performance data. METHODS We compared four co...

Nonparametric (distribution-free) control charts have been introduced in recent years when quality characteristics do not follow a specific distribution. When the sample selection is prohibitively expensive, we prefer ranked-set sampling over simple random because ranked set sampling-based outperform charts. In this study, proposed nonparametric homogeneously weighted moving average based on Wi...

The combination of Shewhart control charts and an exponentially weighted moving average (EWMA) control charts to simultaneously monitor shifts in the mean output of a production process has proven very effective in handling both small and large shifts. To improve the sensitivity of the control chart to detect off-target processes, we propose a combined Shewhart-EWMA (CSEWMA) control chart for m...
