报告摘要：

Motivated by the construction of Shewhart-type control charts with unequal sample sizes, we provide several estimators which are needed to estimate process parameters. When samples are unbalanced, special cares should be taken to ensure the unbiasedness of estimators. We consider incorporating the proposed method into the control charts. The usual requirement under the control charts is that the sample sizes of subgroups are all equal (balanced) under the normality. In practice, however, it is often the case that the samples are not balanced. There exist several ad-hoc methods to handle the case of unbalanced samples. However, these ad-hoc methods are biased, which can result in underperformance.

In this talk, we suggest several unbiased estimators and provide the rigorous proofs of the inequalities needed for selecting an estimator. The proofs reveal an interesting and useful connection between the statistical and mathematical theories. For example, the normal-consistency factor c4 can be expressed using the Wallis' production formula calculating pi and the Watson representation.
