The total median statistic to monitor contaminated normal data

Abstract: Despite the advantages of the use of the normal distribution in Statistical Quality Control, the normality assumption is too restrictive for modelling real data sets, which usually exhibit asymmetry or tails heavier than the normal tails. But even in potential normal situations, there is often a small to moderate percentage of contamination in the data. In this paper, we analyze the efficiency and robustness of the total median statistic in comparison with the sample mean and the sample median to estimate the … Show more

“…In SPM applications, in which in‐control process distribution is assumed to be skewed/long‐tailed, robust statistics were found to show good performance for determining CLs in traditional control charts, cumulative sum, and EWMA structures, or in constructing robust control chars. () Similarly, for in‐control processes assumed to consist of normally distributed data with temporary outliers in Phase I (the view also adopted in the current study), performance of “outlier resistant statistics,” such as trimmed mean (TM) and interquartile range (IQR), in estimating of CLs was shown to surprass that of traditional estimators. () Although asymptotic convergence properties were questioned, incorporation robust statistics into a reweighting scheme was shown to improve monitoring performance, possibly due to desirable finite sample properties of the reweighted robust estimators .…”

“…On this topic, and following Fernanda Figueiredo's PhD thesis, already referred in 3.5.1, I first mention some articles essentially in the area of Statistical Quality Control (SQC), but in which various methods are used involving Order Statistics and Extremes: [94], with details on the role of moving maxima and the total median in SQC; [95,96], on the role of asymmetric-normal distributions in SQC and in eliminating risk in modelling real data; [97], on the role of the total median in monitoring contaminated normal data, subject to various types of contamination; [93], with the development of acceptance sampling plans to reduce the risk associated with chemical compounds.…”

“…The implementation of commonly used control charts is considerably less wise when normality assumption is seriously violated [9]- [12]. To accommodate this nonnormality situation, a varielty of new designs and modification of existing designs have been proposed in literature [13]. For instance, control chart based on the assumption that observed quality characteristic followed the lognormal distribution has been developed [14].…”
