0.4.6 A generalized <strong>acceptance</strong> <strong>sampling</strong> scheme<br />
We would hereafter attempt to develop a <strong>sampling</strong> inspection scheme using the sample size<br />
- lot size relation of the MIL- STD-105D standard, using the above mentioned alternative<br />
<strong>acceptance</strong> criterion. In this exercise we would try to induct the features: a) producer’s<br />
risk ( i.e. the effective producer’s risk for a multiattribute inspection plan ) is reasonable<br />
from the point of view of the industry, and b) the scheme possesses the property that the<br />
OC function for a given plan is more sensitive to the changes in the defect level of more<br />
important attribute (s) .<br />
0.4.7 Sampling <strong>plans</strong> with given producer’s and consumer’s risks<br />
Having established a general expression for the type B OC function for a multiattribute<br />
single <strong>sampling</strong> plan (MASSP) we draw our attention to the construction of a MASSP, given<br />
two quality levels in the form of vectors, satisfactory (p) and unsatisfactory (p ′ ), such that<br />
the risks of rejection at p (producer’s risk) and risk of <strong>acceptance</strong> at p ′ ( consumer’s risk )<br />
are nearly same as, but not more than those stipulated. Note that the p and p ′ denote the<br />
process average vectors.<br />
It is obvious that the <strong>acceptance</strong> parameters of the <strong>sampling</strong> <strong>plans</strong> which will be arrived at<br />
will be specific to the <strong>acceptance</strong> criteria. We shall, therefore, attempt to develop <strong>sampling</strong><br />
inspection schemes accordingly. We may choose different such schemes based on different<br />
criteria compare them with respect to the sample size(say).<br />
0.4.8 Bayesian Plans<br />
0.4.8.1 The existing models<br />
The economic design of multiattribute <strong>sampling</strong> schemes taking account of Bayesian principles<br />
based on appropriate prior distribution was considered by Schmidt and Bennett (1972),<br />
and further by Case, Schmidt and Bennett (1975), Ailor, Schimdt and Bennet (1975), Majumdar<br />
(1980, 1990, 1997), Moskowitz, Plante and Tang (1986), Moskowitz, Plante and Tang<br />
and Ravindran (1984) and Tang, Plante and Moskowitz (1986).<br />
Schimdt et. al (1972) assumed 1) destructive inspection and 2) scrapping of rejected lots.<br />
In Ailor, Schimdt and Bennett (1975) ’s model the characteristics of interest could be a<br />
mixture of attributes and variables and the corrective action on the rejected lot would be<br />
either scrapping or screening.<br />
Case et. al (1975) considered no screening/sorting on the rejected lots; all rejected lots are<br />
scrapped. Tang et. al (1986) classified attributes in two classes, scrappable and screenable .<br />
For the rejection due to scrappable defects, cost of rejection is proportional to the lot size,<br />
irrespective of number of defects present in the remainder of the lot. For rejection due to<br />
screenable attributes, the cost of rejection is proportional to the number of items screened<br />
