Significance

25、 and Use4.1 In Case 1, the sample is selected from a process or avery large population of interest. The population is essentiallyunlimited, and each item either has or has not the definedattribute. The population (process) has an unknown fraction ofitems p (long run average process non-conforming) h

26、aving theattribute. The sample is a group of n discrete items selected atrandom from the process or population under consideration,and the attribute is not exhibited in the sample. The objectiveis to determine an upper confidence bound, pu, for the unknownfraction p whereby one can claim that p puwi

27、th someconfidence coefficient (probability) C. The binomial distribu-tion is the sampling distribution in this case.4.2 In Case 2, a sample of n items is selected at randomfrom a finite lot of N items. Like Case 1, each item either hasor has not the defined attribute, and the population has anunknow

28、n number, D, of items having the attribute. The sampledoes not exhibit the attribute. The objective is to determine anupper confidence bound, Du, for the unknown number D,whereby one can claim that D Duwith some confidencecoefficient (probability) C. The hypergeometric distribution isthe sampling di

29、stribution in this case.4.3 In Case 3, there is a process, but the output is acontinuum, such as area (for example, a roll of paper or othermaterial, a field of crop), volume (for example, a volume ofliquid or gas), or time (for example, hours, days, quarterly, etc.)The sample size is defined as tha

30、t portion of the “continuum”sampled, and the defined attribute may occur any number oftimes over the sampled portion. There is an unknown averagerate of occurrence, , for the defined attribute over the sampledinterval of the continuum that is of interest. The sample doesnot exhibit the attribute. Fo

31、r a roll of paper this might beblemishes per 100 ft2; for a volume of liquid, microbes percubic litre; for a field of crop, spores per acre; for a timeinterval, calls per hour, customers per day or accidents perquarter. The rate, , is proportional to the size of the interval ofinterest. Thus, if = 1

32、2 blemishes per 100 ft2of paper, this isequivalent to 1.2 blemishes per 10 ft2or 30 blemishes per 250ft2. It is important to keep in mind the size of the interval in theanalysis and interpretation. The objective is to determine anupper confidence bound, u, for the unknown occurrence rate ,whereby on

33、e can claim that uwith some confidencecoefficient (probability) C. The Poisson distribution is thesampling distribution in this case.4.4 Avariation on Case 3 is the situation where the sampled“interval” is really a group of discrete items, and the definedE2334 09 (2013)2attribute may occur any numbe

34、r of times within an item. Thismight be the case where the continuum is a process producingdiscrete items such as metal parts, and the attribute is definedas a scratch. Any number of scratches could occur on anysingle item. In such a case the occurrence rate, , might bedefined as scratches per 1000

35、parts or some similar metric.4.5 In each case a sample of items or a portion of acontinuum is examined for the presence of a defined attribute,and the attribute is not observed (that is, a zero response). Theobjective is to determine an upper confidence bound for eitheran unknown proportion, p (Case

36、 1), an unknown quantity, D(Case 2), or an unknown rate of occurrence, (Case 3). In thisstandard, confidence means the probability that the unknownparameter is not more than the upper bound. More generally,these methods determine a relationship among sample size,confidence and the upper confidence b

37、ound. They can be usedto determine the sample size required to demonstrate a specificp, D or with some degree of confidence. They can also beused to determine the degree of confidence achieved indemonstrating a specified p, D or .4.6 In this standard allowance is made for misclassificationerror but

38、only when misclassification rates are well understoodor known, and can be approximated numerically.4.7 It is possible to impose the language of classicalacceptance sampling theory on this method. Terms such as LotTolerance Percent Defective, Acceptable Quality Level, Con-sumer Quality Level are not

39、used in this standard. For moreinformation on these terms, see Practice E1994.5. Procedure5.1 When a sample is inspected and a zero response isexhibited with respect to a defined attribute, we refer to thisevent as “all_zeros.” Formulas for calculating the probabilityof “all_zeros” in a sample are b

40、ased on the binomial, thehypergeometric and the Poisson probability distributions.When there is the possibility of misclassification error, adjust-ments to these distributions are used. This practice will clarifywhen each distribution is appropriate and how misclassificationerror is incorporated. Th

41、ree basic cases are considered asdescribed in Section 4. Formulas and examples for each caseare given below. Mathematical notes are given in AppendixX1.5.2 In some applications, the measurement method isknown to be fallible to some extent resulting in a significantmisclassification error. If experim

42、ents with repeated measure-ments have established the rates of misclassification, and theyare known to be constant, they should be included in thecalculating formulas. Two misclassification error probabilitiesare defined for this practice:5.2.1 Let 1be the probability of reporting a non-conforming i

43、tem when the item is really conforming.5.2.2 Let 2be the probability of reporting a conformingitem when the item is really non-conforming.5.2.3 Almost all applications of this standard require that 1be known to be 0 (see 6.1.2).5.3 Formulas for upper confidence bounds in three cases:5.3.1 Case 1The

44、item is a completely discrete object andthe attribute is either present or not within the item. Only oneresponse is recorded per item (either go or no-go). The sampleitems originate from a process and hence the future populationof interest is potentially unlimited in extent so long as theprocess rem

45、ains in statistical control. The item having theattribute is often referred to as a defective item or a non-conforming item or unit. The sample consists of n randomlyselected items from the population of interest. The n items areinspected for the defined attribute. The sampling distribution isthe bi

46、nomial with parameters p equal to the process (popula-tion) fraction non-conforming and n the sample size. Whenzero non-conforming items are observed in the sample (theevent “all_zeros”), and there are no misclassification errors, theupper confidence bound, pu, at confidence level C (0 C 1),for the

47、population proportion non-conforming is:pu5 1 2 =n1 2 C (1)5.3.1.1 Table 1contains the calculated upper confidencebound for the process fraction non-conforming when x=0non-conforming items appear in a sample of size n. Confidenceis 100C%. For example, if n=250 objects are sampled and thereare x=0 no

48、n-conforming objects in the sample, then the upper95% confidence bound for the process fraction non-conformingis approximately 0.01191 or 1.191% non-conforming. Eq 1was applied.5.3.1.2 For the case with misclassification errors, when zeronon-conforming items are observed in the sample (all_zeros),th
