Monitoring the ratio of two normal random variables plays an important role in several manufacturing environments. For short production runs, however, the control charts assumed infinite processes cannot function effectively to detect…
Over the years, the most popularly used control chart for statistical process control has been Shewhart's $\bar{X}-S$ or $\bar{X}-R$ chart along with its multivariate generalizations. But, such control charts suffer from the lack of…
Maintaining the quality of manufactured products at a desired level is known to increase customer satisfaction and profitability. Shewhart control chart is the most widely used in statistical process control (SPC) technique to monitor the…
The traditional variable control charts, such as the X-bar chart, are widely used to monitor variation in a process. They have been shown to perform well for monitoring processes under the general assumptions that the observations are…
In statistical process control, procedures are applied that require relatively strict conditions for their use. If such assumptions are violated, these methods become inefficient, leading to increased incidence of false signals. Therefore,…
In practice, there are processes where the in-control mean and standard deviation of a quality characteristic is not stable. In such cases, the coefficient of variation (CV) is a more appropriate measure for assessing process stability. In…
A multivariate control chart is designed to monitor process parameters of multiple correlated quality characteristics. Often data on multivariate processes are collected as individual observations, i.e. as vectors one at the time. Various…
Control charts, as had been used traditionally for quality monitoring, were applied alternatively to monitor systems' reliability. In other words, they can be applied to detect changes in the failure behavior of systems. Such purpose…
During the last two decades, in statistical process monitoring plentiful new methods appeared with synthetic-type control charts being a prominent constituent. These charts became popular designs for several reasons. The two most important…
Simultaneously monitoring changes in both the mean and variance is a fundamental problem in Statistical Process Control, and numerous methods have been developed to address it. However, many existing approaches face notable limitations:…
Monitoring binomial proportions across multiple independent streams is a critical challenge in Statistical Process Control (SPC), with applications from manufacturing to cybersecurity. While EWMA charts offer sensitivity to small shifts,…
Nonparametric or distribution-free charts can be useful in statistical process control problems when there is limited or lack of knowledge about the underlying process distribution. In this paper, a phase II Shewhart-type chart is…
During the recent years there was an increased interest in studying the performance of different types of control charts, under various distributional models for continuous proportions, such as percentages and rates. In this work we…
Many extensions and modifications have been made to standard process monitoring methods such as the exponentially weighted moving average (EWMA) chart and the cumulative sum (CUSUM) chart. In addition, new schemes have been proposed based…
A multivariate dispersion control chart monitors changes in the process variability of multiple correlated quality characteristics. In this article, we investigate and compare the performance of charts designed to monitor variability based…
We investigate in this paper the effect of the measurement error on the performance of Run Rules control charts monitoring the coefficient of variation (CV) squared. The previous Run Rules CV chart in the literature is improved slightly by…
In this article an SPC case study is presented. It consists of monitoring a manufacturing process used for different products of similar kind. So far, each of these products is monitored individually. However, if there is e.g. a quality…
Monitoring time-between-events (TBE) data, where the goal is to track the time between consecutive events, has important applications across various fields. Many existing schemes for monitoring multivariate TBE data suffer from inherent…
The classic N p chart gives a signal if the number of successes in a sequence of inde- pendent binary variables exceeds a control limit. Motivated by engineering applications in industrial image processing and, to some extent, financial…
In the practical industry, the most commonly used application of statistical analysis for monitoring the process mean is the control chart. Control charts are generated based on the presumption that we have a sample from a stable process.…
