A Fuzzy Design of Single and Double Acceptance Sampling Plans

Abstract

In this chapter, we briefly introduce the topic of acceptance sampling. We also examine acceptance sampling plans with intelligent techniques for solving complex quality problems. Among intelligent techniques, we focus on the application of the fuzzy set theory in the acceptance sampling. Moreover, we propose multi-objective mathematical models for fuzzy single and fuzzy double acceptance sampling plans with illustrative examples. The study illustrates how an acceptance sampling plan should be designed under fuzzy environment.
