  • Control charts for process monitoring are widely used in practice. Most control charts require the monitored (residuals) process to be serially independent (and to satisfy specified distributional assumptions), whereas undetected dependence (or violations of distributional assumptions) may severely affect the charts' performances. Therefore, (distribution-free) control charts for monitoring serial dependence are of utmost relevance for practice. Recently, various nonparametric control charts have been proposed for this purpose, which are based on ordinal patterns, and which showed an appealing performance in detecting different types of serial dependence. In this research, we further progress in this direction and develop novel nonparametric control charts being based on transcripts and algebraic distances (as derived from ordinal patterns). The performance of the newly proposed control charts is evaluated in a simulation study, and their application in practice is illustrated with a real-world data example from chemical industry.
