Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

With the rapid development of data collection techniques, large data streams are common in engineering applications, e.g., text documents, images, videos, networks, webpages, emails, etc. This can be quite difficult to handle, but becomes increasingly important when dealing with statistical analyses and applications in engineering, especially for very large data streams with high frequencies or complex structures. To analyze the data in these fields, statistical analysis methodologies are fundamental to statistical modeling and data analysis, including graphical methods, machine learning, networks, etc. 

This Special Issue is devoted to high-quality research on statistical analysis and applications in engineering. New methodologies or applications that solve the numerous problems associated with large amounts of complex data streams are invited.

In this paper, we introduce the restricted minimum density power divergence Gaussian estimator (MDPDGE) and study its main asymptotic properties. In addition, we examine it robustness through its influence function analysis. Restricted estimators are required in many practical situations, such as testing composite null hypotheses, and we provide in this case constrained estimators to inherent restrictions of the underlying distribution. Furthermore, we derive robust Rao-type test statistics based on the MDPDGE for testing a simple null hypothesis, and we deduce explicit expressions for some main important distributions. Finally, we empirically evaluate the efficiency and robustness of the method through a simulation study. Full article

In the application of control charts, most of the research in profile monitoring is based on accurate measurements. Measurement errors, however, often exist in many manufacturing and service environments. In this paper, we apply linear mixed models in the presence of measurement errors in fixed effects. We discuss three modified multivariate charts, namely Hotelling’s T2, multivariate exponential weighted moving average (MEWMA) control chart, and multivariate cumulative sum (MCUSUM) control chart. Performance comparisons are made in terms of the average run length (ARL) and average extra quadratic loss (AEQL). Finally, a real data example on healthcare expenditures is used to illustrate the implementation of the proposed monitoring schemes. Full article
