Abstract
AbstractRecent studies show that Shewhart median ( ) chart is simpler than the Shewhart chart and it is robust against outliers, but it is often rather inefficient in detecting small or moderate process shifts. The statistical sensitivity of a Shewhart control chart can be improved by using supplementary Run Rules. In this paper, we propose the Phase II median Run Rules type control charts. A Markov chain methodology is used to evaluate the statistical performance of these charts. Moreover, the performance of proposed charts is investigated in the presence of a measurement errors and modelled by a linear covariate error model. An extensive numerical analysis with several tables and figures to show the statistical performance of the investigated charts is provided for both cases of measurement errors and no measurement errors. An example illustrates the use of these charts.
