A simplified design procedure for minimax sampling plans by attributes

Abstract

A minimax criterion was introduced by Fujino and Okuno (1981) for the unique determination of single sampling plans by attributes with given producer's and consumer's risk. A procedure was also proposed by them to get sampling plans based on a minimax criterion. In this paper a simplified design procedure for the minimax sampling plans is presented. The proposed procedure is based on a regression relationship in variates derived from the Wilson-Hilferty approximation, For practical purposes, some tables for designing the desired sampling plans are provided.
