Inspection of the Production Lot Using Two Successive Occasions Sampling Under Neutrosophy
Abstract
Abstract The efficiency of the measuring tools and operators is a significant part of lot sentencing decisions. These tools have to pass some pre-specified quality levels to avoid problems during the quality assessment scenarios. These measurements have a serious risk to be encountered with any extent of ambiguity, doubt, or indeterminacy due to any of the factors like variation among the operating regimes, warming effects in the hot climatic conditions, the operators’ casual attitude, and so on. These factors as the most significant sources of extraneous variations can deeply affect the efficacy of lot sentencing decisions. Hence, the decision when based on the measurement through the operating tools and these tools have to pass which have fulfilled some adequate standards only then lot sentencing may avoid or save from the rejection of a good lot. The authors have put their focus on dealing with the factors that arise by measuring variability among the measured or determined values despite having the normal population distribution. In this study, the auxiliary information is used to estimate the variable of interest over the two successive occasions under the neutrosophic interval numbers and proved helpful to overcome this issue. The presented approach has discussed that in blurred, doubted, uncertain and undetermined datasets partially or completely, the efficacy of the decision for the whole lot cannot be decided on the single point crisped value. But the range of values around such a single crisp point in the form of neutrosophic theory is proved far better. In this context, the neutrosophic interval number successive sampling-based sampling plan is proposed which is the major contribution to the existing literature. It is explained in terms of operating characteristic function and the plan parameters are determined through the neutrosophic non-linear optimization approach. The comparative analysis is presented with the existing sampling plans and found efficient. Moreover, a real-life industrial dataset is used as an application of the concept.
