The Mann–Whitney (MW) test is one of the most important nonparametric tests used in the comparison of the location parameters of two populations. Unlike the  t -test, the MW test can be used when the assumption of normality fails to hold. In this paper, the MW U statistic is used to construct two efficient distribution-free monitoring schemes, namely the mixed generally weighted moving average-cumulative sum (GWMA-CUSUM) MW U scheme (denoted as U-MGC) as well as its reversed version, i.e. the CUSUM-GWMA MW U scheme (denoted as U-MCG). The performances of the proposed schemes are investigated using the average run-length ( ARL ) and average extra quadratic loss ( AEQL ) values through extensive simulations. The newly proposed charts are found to be superior in small shifts detection than their competing (existing and others that are briefly introduced here) distribution-free Shewhart, EWMA, CUSUM, mixed EWMA-CUSUM, mixed CUSUM-EWMA and GWMA MW U charts in many situations. A real-life example is used to demonstrate the design and implementation of the new schemes.
