This work presents an optimal value to be used in the power transformation to transform the exponential to normality for statistical process control (SPC) applications. The optimal value is found by minimizing the sum of absolute differences between two distinct cumulative probability functions....

The theme of this paper is improved planning of binomial sequential probability ratio tests in the context of comparison of two objects as to their time between failures or to failure, assumed to be exponentially distributed. The authors' earlier works established that the probabilities of I-...

This study demonstrates that a location parameter of an exponential distribution significantly influences normalization of the exponential. The Kullback-Leibler information number is shown to be an appropriate index for measuring data normality using a location parameter. Control charts based on...

In this paper, one-sided and two-sided test procedures for comparing several treatments with more than one control with respect to scale parameter are proposed. The proposed test procedures are inverted to obtain the associated simultaneous confidence intervals. The multiple comparisons of test...
