We introduce a new class of Shewhart control charts, namely the phi-chart. This new class is based on the cumulative paired phi-divergence that generalizes both the cumulative (residual) entropy and the differential entropy. The phi-chart contains several subclasses; of which one has as a...

We introduce a new class of Shewhart control charts, namely the ø-chart. This new class is based on the cumulative paired ø-divergence that generalizes both the cumulative (residual) entropy and the differential entropy. The phi-chart contains several subclasses; of which one has as a special...
