Distribution-free (nonparametric) control charts can play an essential role in process monitoring when there is dearth of information about the underlying distribution. In this paper, we study various aspects related to ...

Traditionally, the mean of the run-length distribution (ARL) of an in-control (IC) process is used to design and implement statistical process charting schemes. When standards are unknown (Case U), the unconditional ARL ...

Distribution-free (nonparametric) control charts provide a robust alternative to a data analyst when there is lack of knowledge about the underlying distribution. A two-sided nonparametric Phase II exponentially weighted ...

One of the most common applications in statistical process monitoring is the use of control charts to monitor a process mean. In practice, this is often done with a Shewhart X chart along with a Shewhart R (or an S) ...

Nonparametric control charts can provide a robust alternative in practice to the data analyst when there is a lack of knowledge about the underlying distribution. A nonparametric exponentially weighted moving average (NPEWMA) ...

OBJECTIVE : The objective was to determine the preliminary psychometric performance of a new clinical feeding scale to diagnose oropharyngeal dysphagia (OPD) in neonates. METHODS : Twenty neonates with a median gestational ...

In this paper, we discuss the short-term (also known as zero-state mode) run-length theoretical properties of the four different types of synthetic and runs-rules monitoring schemes that were empirically analyzed in another ...

In this paper, the long term (also known as the steady-state mode) run-length theoretical properties of the four different types of synthetic and runs-rules monitoring schemes, that were empirically analysed in part 1 of ...
