Abstract: | In this article, we propose the two control charts, i.e. the ‘VMAX Group Runs’ (VMAX-GR) and ‘VMAX Modified Group Runs’ (VMAX-MGR) control charts based on the bivariate normal processes, for monitoring the covariance matrix. The proposed charts give the faster detection of a process change and have better diagnostic feature. It is verified that the VMAX-GR and the VMAX-MGR charts give a significant reduction in the out-of-control ‘Average Run Length’ (ARL) in the zero state, as well as in the steady state, as compared to the synthetic control chart based on the VMAX statistic and the generalized variance |S| chart. |
