Abstract
AbstractWe show that the so‐called modified exponentially weighted moving average (EWMA) control chart is very closely related to a moving average‐based EWMA chart. These charts have ill‐advised weighting functions that assign more weight to some past data values than to the most recent data values. We show that these weighting functions adversely affect their run length properties and that one can obtain better overall performance with an ordinary EWMA chart.
