In such situations, control charts applying Lasso are useful. This study proposes a novel multivariate control chart that assumes that only a few elements of the controlled parameters change.</p> <p><strong>Methodology/Approach:</strong> We applied Lasso to the conventional likelihood ratio-based EWMA chart; specifically, we considered a multivariate control chart based on a log-likelihood ratio with sparse estimators of the mean vector and variance-covariance matrix.</p> <p><strong>Findings:</strong> The results show that 1) it is possible to identify which elements have changed by confirming each sparse estimated parameter, and 2) the proposed procedure outperforms the conventional likelihood ratio-based EWMA chart regardless of the number of parameter elements that change.</p> <p><strong>Research Limitation/Implication:</strong> We perform sparse estimation under the assumption that the regularization parameters are known. However, the regularization parameters are often unknown in real life; therefore, it is necessary to discuss how to determine them.</p> <p><strong>Originality/Value of paper:</strong> The study provides a natural extension of the conventional likelihood ratio-based EWMA chart to improve interpretability and detection accuracy. Our procedure is expected to solve challenges created by changes in a few elements of the population mean vector and population variance-covariance matrix.</p>}, number={1}, journal={Quality Innovation Prosperity}, author={Saruhashi, Takumi and Ohkubo, Masato and Nagata, Yasushi}, year={2021}, month={Mar.}, pages={3–15} }
