Change point estimation in the area of statistical process control has received considerable attentions in the recent decades because it helps process engineer to identify and remove assignable causes as quickly as possible. On the other hand, improving in measurement systems and data storage, lead to taking observations very close to each other in time and as a result increasing autocorrelatio...

We study an investment model in which agents have the wrong beliefs about the dynamic properties of fundamentals. Specifically, we assume that agents underestimate the rate of mean reversion. The model exhibits the following six properties: (i) Beliefs are excessively optimistic in good times and excessively pessimistic in bad times. (ii) Asset prices are too volatile. (iii) Excess returns are ...

Control charts are used to determine whether or not a manufacturing or business process is in a state of statistical control. Various schemes of the standard (Shewhart) X chart for autocorrelated data at sample sizes of 2 and 3 are developed and compared with the schemes of the same chart for IID data at various process shifts in the process mean. It is clear from the comparison that the in-con...

One of the primary tools used in statistical quality control is the control charts. The standard assumptions that are usually cited in justifying the use of control charts are that the data generated by the in control process are independent and identically distributed. However the independency assumption is not realistic in practice. Data sets collected from industrial processes may have corre...
