Distribution-free (Nonparametric) control charts are one of the most important tool of statistical process monitoring and control in the twenty-first century. Implementation techniques of distribution-free control charts do not require any knowledge about the underlying process distribution or its parameters. The main advantage of distribution-free control charts is its in-control robustness, in the sense that, irrespective of the nature of the underlying process distributions, the properties of these control charts remain same when the process is smoothly operating without presence of any assignable cause.

History and Background

Early evidence of research on nonparamertric control charts may be found in 1981[1] when P.K. Bhattacharya and D. Frierson introduced a nonparametric control chart for detecting small disorders. However, major growth of nonparametric control charting schemes has taken place only in the recent years.
