Abstract: This paper presents the confidence intervals for the
effect size base on bootstrap resampling method. The meta-analytic
confidence interval for effect size is proposed that are easy to
compute. A Monte Carlo simulation study was conducted to compare
the performance of the proposed confidence intervals with the
existing confidence intervals. The best confidence interval method
will have a coverage probability close to 0.95. Simulation results
have shown that our proposed confidence intervals perform well in
terms of coverage probability and expected length.
Abstract: Exponentially weighted moving average control chart (EWMA) is a popular chart used for detecting shift in the mean of parameter of distributions in quality control. The objective of this paper is to compare the efficiency of control chart to detect an increases in the mean of a process. In particular, we compared the Maximum Exponentially Weighted Moving Average (MaxEWMA) and Maximum Generally Weighted Moving Average (MaxGWMA) control charts when the observations are Exponential distribution. The criteria for evaluate the performance of control chart is called, the Average Run Length (ARL). The result of comparison show that in the case of process is small sample size, the MaxEWMA control chart is more efficiency to detect shift in the process mean than MaxGWMA control chart. For the case of large sample size, the MaxEWMA control chart is more sensitive to detect small shift in the process mean than MaxGWMA control chart, and when the process is a large shift in mean, the MaxGWMA control chart is more sensitive to detect mean shift than MaxEWMA control chart.
