In change detection problem, the distribution of a sequence of observations can change at some unknown instant.

In this paper, the observations come from an uncertain system modeled by an autoregressive model<span> containing an unknown functional component. The popular Page’s CUSUM rule is not applicable anymore since it requires the full knowledge of the model. A new detection CUSUM-like scheme is proposed, which is based on the nonparametric estimation of the unknown component from a learning sample. Moreover, the estimation procedure can be updated on-line which ensures a better detection, especially at the beginning of the monitoring procedure. Simulation trials were performed on a model describing a water treatment process and show the interest of this new procedure with respect to the classic CUSUM rule.</span></p></div>","PeriodicalId":48877,"journal":{"name":"Statistical Methodology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1016/j.stamet.2016.08.003","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"136837488","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this article, we propose a new penalized forward selection technique which can reduce high dimensional optimization problems to several one dimensional optimization problems by choosing the best predictor and then iterating the selection steps until convergence. The advantage of optimizing in one dimension is that the location of optimum solution can be obtained with an intelligent search by exploiting smoothness of the criterion function. Moreover, these one dimensional optimization problems can be solved in parallel to reduce computing time nearly to the level of the one-predictor problem.
