background : there are few published studies that use real data testing to examine the performance of outbreak detection methods. the aim of this study was to determine the performance of the exponentially weighted moving average (ewma) in real time detection of a local outbreak in mashhad city, eastern iran . methods : the ewma algorithms (both ewma 1 with λ=0.3 and ewma 2 with λ=0.6) were app...

The mixed control chart is proposed to improve detection performance with fewer process shifts. In this study, we the modified exponentially weighted moving average - (MMEM), a new for observing changes in mean. Average run length, standard deviation of and median length can be used examine effectiveness detecting Shewhart, Moving (MA), Modified Exponentially Weighted (MEWMA), Mixed (MMME) char...

1. Unlike X -R and Individuals charts (without the Western Electric Handbook rules which aim to increase sensitivity), all of the data collected over time may be used to determine the control status of a process. 2. The EWMA is often superior to the CUSUM charting technique for detecting "larger" shifts. 3. EWMA schemes may be applied for monitoring standard deviations in addition to the proces...

in many computer vision applications, segmenting and extraction of moving objects in video sequences is an essential task. background subtraction, by which each input image is subtracted from the reference image, has often been used for this purpose. in this paper, we offer a novel background-subtraction technique for real-time dynamic background generation using color images that are taken fro...
