A Robust Exponentially Weighted Moving Average Control Chart For The Process Mean, Michael B. C. Khoo, S. Y. Sim Nov 2005

A Robust Exponentially Weighted Moving Average Control Chart For The Process Mean, Michael B. C. Khoo, S. Y. Sim

Journal of Modern Applied Statistical Methods

To date, numerous extensions of the exponentially weighted moving average, EWMA charts have been made. A new robust EWMA chart for the process mean is proposed. It enables easier detection of outliers and increase sensitivity to other forms of out-of-control situation when outliers are present.


A Nonrigorous Approach Of Incorporating Sensitizing Rules Into Multivariate Control Charts, Michael B. C. Khoo Nov 2005

A Nonrigorous Approach Of Incorporating Sensitizing Rules Into Multivariate Control Charts, Michael B. C. Khoo

Journal of Modern Applied Statistical Methods

Multivariate control charts are becoming more important in the monitoring of processes in manufacturing industries because the quality of a process is usually determined by several correlated variables (quality characteristics). The most popular multivariate process control procedure is based on the Hotelling control chart. It is used to monitor the mean vector of a process. A nonrigorous approach of using four sensitizing rules is introduced to improve the performance of a conventional Hotelling chart. The use of these rules on a conventional Hotelling chart do not require a transformation of the T2 statistics into normal random variables. Thus, the …
