A scope in quality control, which has recently received a great deal of attention is profile that characterizes the quality of a product or process by a relationship between two or more variables. In this paper, we propose an EWMA chart for…
Multivariate analysis of variance (MANOVA) is a powerful and versatile method to infer and quantify main and interaction effects in metric multivariate multi-factor data. It is, however, neither robust against change in units nor a…
Control charts can be applied in a wide range of areas, this paper focuses on generalisations suitable for healthcare applications. We concentrate on the effect of using mixture distributions as the possible shifts in the process mean…
This paper presents a stochastic model predictive control approach for nonlinear systems subject to time-invariant probabilistic uncertainties in model parameters and initial conditions. The stochastic optimal control problem entails a cost…
The Mann-Whitney effect is an effect measure for the order of two sample-specific outcome variables. It has the interpretation of a probability and also a connection to the area under the ROC curve. In the literature it has been considered…
Testing equality of two multivariate distributions is a classical problem for which many non-parametric tests have been proposed over the years. Most of the popular two-sample tests, which are asymptotically distribution-free, are based…
Non-parametric approaches to test for trends in time series make use of the Mann-Kendall statistic. Based on asymptotic arguments, these tests assume that its distribution follows a Gaussian distribution, even for autocorrelated time…
In Statistical Process Control, control charts are often used to detect undesirable behavior of sequentially observed quality characteristics. Designing a control chart with desirably low False Alarm Rate (FAR) and detection delay ($ARL_1$)…
Conducting valid statistical analyses is challenging in the presence of missing-not-at-random (MNAR) data, where the missingness mechanism is dependent on the missing values themselves even conditioned on the observed data. Here, we…
Woodall and Montgomery [35] in a discussion paper, state that multivariate process control is one of the most rapidly developing sections of statistical process control. Nowadays, in industry, there are many situations in which the…
Most statistical process control programmes in healthcare focus on surveillance of outcomes at the final stage of a procedure, such as mortality or failure rates. Such an approach ignores the multi-stage nature of these procedures, in which…
We consider the optimal control of singular nonlinear partial differential equation which is the distributional formulation of the multiphase Stefan type free boundary problem for the general second order parabolic equation. Boundary heat…
In preliminary analysis of control charts, one may encounter multiple shifts and/or outliers especially with a large number of observations. The following paper addresses this problem. A statistical model for detecting and estimating…
In this paper, I propose a general procedure for multivariate distribution-free nonparametric testing derived from the concept of ranks that are based upon measure transportation in the context of multiple change point analysis. I will use…
In recent years, the monitoring of compositional data using control charts has been investigated in the Statistical Process Control field. In this study, we will design a Phase II Multivariate Exponentially Weighted Moving Average (MEWMA)…
Regression control charts are usually used to monitor variables of interest that are related to control variables. However, for fraction and/or proportion data, the use of standard regression control charts may not be adequate, since the…
The monitoring of serially independent or autocorrelated count processes is considered, having a Poisson or (negative) binomial marginal distribution under in-control conditions. Utilizing the corresponding Stein identities, exponentially…
Existing monitoring tools for multivariate data are often asymptotically distribution-free, computationally intensive, or require a large stretch of stable data. Many of these methods are not applicable to 'high dimension, low sample size'…
This note introduces a new Bayesian control chart to compare two processes by monitoring the ratio of their percentiles under Weibull assumption. Both in-control and out-of-control parameters are supposed unknown. The chart analyses the…
In this paper, we present a new parametrization to perform direct data-driven analysis and controller synthesis for the error-in-variables case. To achieve this, we employ the Sherman-Morrison-Woodbury formula to transform the problem into…
