Abstract

A control chart for monitoring the multivariate coefficient of variation (MCV) is used when the focus is on monitoring the ratio of relative multivariate variability to the mean of a multivariate process. The MCV chart is useful in process monitoring when practitioners are not interested in the consistency of the mean vector or covariance matrix. This study proposes a one-sided upward variable sampling interval (VSI) exponentially weighted moving average (EWMA) chart to detect increasing shifts in MCV squared (γ2) and shows the derivation of formulae to evaluate the performance of the VSI EWMA-γ2 chart by using the Markov chain approach. Comparative investigations show that the proposed chart outperforms existing MCV charts in detecting shifts in process MCV. A numerical example that uses real data reveals that the proposed chart performs well in actual applications.
