Modeling and detecting change in temporal networks via the degree corrected stochastic block model
TL;DR: This work proposes and investigates the use of the degree corrected stochastic block model (DCSBM) to model and monitor dynamic networks that undergo a significant structural change, and applies statistical process monitoring techniques to the estimated parameters of the DCSBM to identify significant structural changes in the network.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cumulative Sum Control Charts for Monitoring Weibull‐distributed Time Between Events
Mohammed S. Shafae,Mohammed S. Shafae,Rebecca M. Dickinson,William H. Woodall,Jaime A. Camelio +4 more
TL;DR: The ECUSUM chart is shown to be much less robust to departures from the exponential distribution than was previously claimed in the literature and the advantages of using one of the other two charts, which show surprisingly similar performance.
Book ChapterDOI
The Use of Control Charts in Healthcare
TL;DR: An overview of common uses of statistical process control in healthcare and some guidance on the choice of appropriate charts for various applications is provided.
Journal ArticleDOI
CUSUM charts for monitoring a zero‐inflated poisson process
TL;DR: A control charting procedure using a combination of two cumulative sum charts is proposed for monitoring increases in the two parameters of the zero-inflated Poisson process and is much better than the single CUSUM chart when one parameter increases while the other decreases.
Journal ArticleDOI
Detecting a rate increase using a Bernoulli scan statistic.
TL;DR: It is shown how to evaluate the expected number of Bernoulli observations needed to generate a signal that the incidence rate has increased, and the performance of the prospective scan statistic method with that obtained using theBernoulli‐based cumulative sum (CUSUM) technique.
