Abstract

In Chapter 1, we illustrated the major properties of the CUSUM: its descriptive properties, its ability to signal persistent shifts, even if these are quite modest, and its diagnosis using either the V-mask or the equivalent decision interval form. In this chapter, we look more closely at the design of the CUSUM — that is, at the choice of the parameters k and h that define the decision interval scheme or the equivalent V-mask.

Adding one thing to another to discover the scheme of things⋯ Ecclesiastes 7:27
