“…Kim et al (2003) showed their method of three univariate EWMA charts monitoring slope, intercept, and the variance of deviation between samples and regression line performs better than EWMA/R chart in terms of average run length (ARL). Studies in nonlinear profile analysis can be categorized into four typesapplying multiple and polynomial regression (Zou et al, 2007;Kazemzadeh et al 2008;Mahmoud 2008), applying nonlinear regression models (Ding et al, 2006;Williams et al, 2007;Shiau et al, 2009;Chang and Yadama 2010;Chen and Nembhard 2011;), use of mixed models (Jensen et al, 2008;Jensen and Birch, 2009;Qiu et al, 2010;Paynabar and Jin, 2011 ), and use of wavelets (Reis and Saraiva, 2006;Zhou et al, 2007;Chicken et al, 2009). For more detail of those methods to monitor the process stability can be found in Woodall (2007) and Noorossana et al (2011).…”
