Run Rules-Based EWMA Charts for Efficient Monitoring of Profile Parameters by Yeganeh, Ali

“…In this article, we improve the performance of the Exponentially Weighted Moving Average Range (EWMAR) control charts, which are implemented for monitoring linear profiles (i.e., intercept, slope and average residual between sample and reference lines) by integrating them with run rules in order to quickly detect various magnitudes of shifts in profile parameters. …”
