In the literature, median type control charts have been widely investigated as easy and efficient means to monitor the process mean when observations are from a normal distribution. In this work, a Variable Sampling Interval (VSI) Exponentially Weighted Moving Average (EWMA) median control chart is proposed and studied. The Markov chains are used to calculate the average run length to signal (ARL). A performance comparison with the original EWMA median control chart is made. The numerical results show that the proposed chart is considerably more effective as it is faster in detecting process shifts. Finally, the implementation of the proposed chart is illustrated with an example in food production process.

The purpose of this research is to enhance performance for detecting a change in process mean by combining modified exponentially weighted moving average and sign control charts. This is nonparametric control chart which effective alternatives to the parametric control chart so called MEWMA-Sign. The nonparametric control chart can serve when process observations is deviated from normal distribution assumption. Generally, the performance of control charts are widely measured by average run length (ARL) divided into two cases; in control ARL (ARL0) and out of control ARL (ARL1). In this paper, the performance comparison is investigated when processes are non-normal distributions. The performance of the MEWMA-Sign is compared EWMA-Sign control chart by considering from a minimum value of ARL1. The numerical results found that the MEWMASign performs better than EWMA-Sign in order to detect a very small shift of mean process. Additionally, the real application of the MEWMA-Sign and EWMA-Sign are presented.

In this paper, we have proposed a Hybrid Exponentially Weighted Moving Average (HEWMA) control chart. The proposed control chart is based on the exponential type estimator for mean using two auxiliary variables (cf. Noor-ul-Amin and Hanif, 2012). We call it an EHEWMA control chart because it is based on the exponential estimator of the mean. From this study, the fact is revealed that E-HEWMA control chart shows more efficient results as compared to traditional/simple EWMA chart and DS.EWMA control chart (cf. Raza and Butt, 2018). The comparison of the E-HEWMA control chart is also performed with the DS-EWMA chart. The proposed chart also outperforms the other control chartsin comparison. The E-HEWMA chart can be used for efficient monitoring of the production process in manufacturing industries.A simulated example has been used to compare the proposed and traditional/simple EWMA charts and DS.EWMA control chart. The control charts' performance is measured using the average run length-out of control (ARL1). It is observed that the proposed chart performs better than existing EWMA control charts.

Quality control is an important role in industry for maintain quality stability.  Statistical process control can quickly investigate the occurrence of unforeseen causes or process shifts using control charts. Mixed Exponentially Weighted Moving Average - Cumulative Sum (MEC) control chart is a tool used to monitor and evaluate whether the production process is in control or not. The MEC control chart method is a combination of the Exponentially Weighted Moving Average (EWMA) and Cumulative Sum (CUSUM) charts. Combining the two charts aims to increase the sensitivity of the control chart in detecting out of control. To compare the sensitivity level of the EWMA, CUSUM, and MEC methods, the Average Run Length (ARL) was used. From the comparison of ARL values, the MEC chart is the most sensitive control chart in detecting out of control compared to EWMA and CUSUM charts for small shifts. Keywords: Grafik Pengendali, Exponentially Weighted Moving Average, Cumulative Sum, Mixed EWMA-CUSUM, Average Run Lenght, EWMA, CUSUM, MEC, ARL

The existing Shewhart X-bar control charts using the exponentially weighted moving average statistic are designed under the assumption that all observations are precise, determined, and known. In practice, it may be possible that the sample or the population observations are imprecise or fuzzy. In this paper, we present the designing of the X-bar control chart under the symmetry property of normal distribution using the neutrosophic exponentially weighted moving average statistics. We will first introduce the neutrosophic exponentially weighted moving average statistic, and then use it to design the X-bar control chart for monitoring the data under an uncertainty environment. We will determine the neutrosophic average run length using the neutrosophic Monte Carlo simulation. The efficiency of the proposed plan will be compared with existing control charts.

In this study, a generalized range control chart is designed for the Weibull distribution using generally weighted moving average statistics. The proposed chart is based on minimum generally weighted moving average statistic and maximum generally weighted moving average statistics. We utilize the inverse erf function to transform the Weibull data to normal data. The necessary measures are given to assess the performance of the proposed control chart. The comparison study shows that the proposed control chart outperforms the existing control charts based on exponentially weighted moving average statistic in terms of the average run length. A real example is given for applying the proposed chart in the industry.

Designing of parameters plays an important role in economic design of control charts for lowering the cost and time. Manipulating sample size (n) and sampling interval (h), the effect of double exponentially weighted moving average (DEWMA) model was studied for the Economic Design (ED) of X̅ control chart. Optimum sizes and level were obtained when the characteristics of an item possesses DEWMA model. When shifts are uncertain the optimal design for DEWMA chart should be more conservative and should be implemented for benefiting the consumers as well as producers.
