Abstract: Identifying the real time change in a process, when an out-of-control signal is given by a control chart is crucial and leads to cost and time savings significantly. There are processes or products whose quality is described by a relationship between a response variable and one or more explanatory variable. This relationship is known as profile in the literature of statistical process control and is modelled by different regression types including logistic regression. This type of profile is used where the response variable follows a binomial distribution. In this paper, a maximum likelihood estimator (MLE) based on regression parameters is developed to find the real time of a step change in logistic regression profiles. Simulation studies are provided to evaluate the performance of the proposed change point estimator under both single step change and linear trend change.
