This paper presents the procedure for the construction and selection of the mixed sampling plan using MAPD as a quality standard with the TNT(n;c1,c2 ) plan as attribute plan. The plans indexed through MAPD and AQL are constructed and compared for their efficiency. Tables are constructed for easy selection of the plan.

The LTPD plans for acceptance sampling which minimize the mean inspection cost per lot of the process average quality when the remainder of the rejected lots is inspected were originally designed by Dodge and Romig for the inspection by attributes. The sampling plans for the inspection by variables were then proposed and it has been shown that such plans are in many situations in practice more ...

OBJECTIVE: To describe the sampling plan and estimation methods used to collect and analyze data in the survey Sexual Behavior and Perceptions of the Brazilian Population concerning HIV/Aids in 2005. METHODS: The study presents the decisions that were made concerning population defi nition, strata of interest to the survey and to the sampling plan, main procedures for data analysis and sample p...

The sampling plan for the mean for correlated data is studied. The Operating Characteristic (OC) of the variable sampling plan for mean for correlated data are calculated and compared with the OC of known σ case.

The ranked set sampling method has been made more inclusive in this paper. In order to estimate the quartile of Laplace distribution, generalized technique is used. Two key factors are taken into account for new course action: data selected using Quartile Ranked Set inspecting plan from a significant portion, and lifetime test units acknowledged follow summary noteworthy dissemination. base num...

We present a multi-phase variant of adaptive cluster sampling which allows the sampler to control the number of measurements of the variable of interest. A first-phase sample is selected using an adaptive cluster sampling design based on an inexpensive auxiliary variable associated with the survey variable. Then the network structure of the adaptive cluster sample is used to select an ordinary ...
