| Abstract: | Much research had been performed in the area of control charting techniques for monitoring autocorrelated processes, especially regarding forecast based monitoring schemes. Forecast based monitoring schemes involve fitting an appropriate time-series model to the process, generating one step ahead forecast errors, and monitoring the forecast errors with traditional control charts. Another method introduced into the literature involves using multivariate control charts to monitor the ARMA derived one-step-ahead (OSA) and two-step-ahead (TSA) forecast errors. This article provides a broad simulation study and evaluation of the suggested multivariate approaches in regards to various ARMA(1,1) and AR(1) processes, and a comparison to their univariate counterparts. |
