Abstract

To monitor processes under automatic process control (APC), several joint monitoring schemes have recently been proposed, such as the U statistics, U 0 and U, that originate from the uniformly most powerful test. It is known that the U0 chart is sensitive to large shift detection whereas the U, chart is sensitive to small shift detection. To take advantage of both charts, this paper examines a combined use of the two U charts. A comparative study indicates that the combined procedure improves over a single U chart and performs better than other joint monitoring schemes, including Hotelling's T2 chart for APC processes.
