The Design of the Variable Sampling Interval Generalized Likelihood Ratio Chart for Monitoring the Process Mean

Abstract

This paper considers the problem of monitoring a normally distributed process variable in which some sustained shift in the mean may occur. A generalized likelihood ratio (GLR) control chart with a variable sampling interval (VSI) scheme is proposed to quickly detect a wide range of such shifts. The performance of the VSI GLR chart is evaluated, and the results show that using the VSI feature can greatly reduce the expected detection time. Design methodology for the VSI GLR chart is provided so that practitioners can easily use this chart in applications. An illustrative example is given to explain how to apply the VSI GLR chart.
