Visualizing and assessing acceptance sampling plans: The R package acceptance sampling

Abstract

Manufacturers and government agencies frequently use acceptance sampling to decide whether a lot from a supplier or exporting country should be accepted or rejected. International standards on acceptance sampling provide sampling plans for specic circumstances. The aim of this package is to provide an easy-to-use interface to visualize single, double or multiple sampling plans. In addition, methods have been provided to enable the user to assess sampling plans against pre-specied levels of performance, as measured by the probability of acceptance for a given level of quality in the lot.
