Abstract
In a well-supervised production framework, non-conformities occur seldom, resulting in a more number of zeros in the count of non-conformities. The zero-inflated Poisson (ZIP) distribution is a suitable model for handling zero inflation. Double sampling plan (DSP) is a precise quality inspection method where a decision on the approval or rejection of a lot is made after reviewing two samples, providing stronger conclusions than single sampling plan (SSP). In practice, decision-making for submitted lots requires a consistent assessment of both within-lot and between-lot variations, which can be addressed using Bayesian methodology. A Bayesian approach integrates prior knowledge and provides more information for making decisions about the approval or rejection of a lot. This article focuses on the designing of Bayesian DSPs; employing a Gamma prior to the parameter in the Poisson component of ZIP distribution the operating characteristic (OC) function is derived. Examples are provided to assess Gamma-ZIP (GZIP) DSPs. The significance of GZIP DSPs over conventional ZIP DSPs is also presented.
Keywords: Sampling inspection by attributes, Double sampling plan, Prior distribution, Zero-inflated Poisson distribution, Average quality level, Limiting quality level, Operating characteristics function.
I. Introduction
Sampling inspection is a method employed to assess the quality of items by examining a sample rather than inspecting every individual item. This approach is widely applied in manufacturing, service industries, and other sectors where full inspection would be too expensive or time-consuming. Acceptance sampling is a strategy that helps determine whether entire batches can be approved or declined based on sample inspection. Sampling inspection is categorized into two main types: sampling inspection by attributes and variables, both of which help to assess the quality standard of a batch.
In a SSP, the judgment to approve or decline a batch is based on inspecting only one sample. However, there are situations where a single sample may not provide sufficient information for a conclusive decision. In such cases, a DSP is implemented, where the decision is made based on the inspection of two samples. DSP functions as an extension of SSP, offering more reliable decisionmaking in quality control. Designing DSP parameters offers enhanced decision-making accuracy and provides better protection to both producer and consumer.
A Bayesian approach to acceptance sampling integrates prior knowledge with observed data to improve decision-making. When items are manufactured in lots, quality variations can occur due to within-lot and between-lot variation. Conventional acceptance sampling often assumes that between-lot variation is less significant than within-lot variation, leading to the assumption that the fraction of nonconforming items in a lot remains constant. In reality, decisions about submitted lots should consider both within-lot and between-lot variations. In such cases, Bayesian methods can be employed to design effective sampling plans based on predictive distributions.
The ZIP distribution is particularly effective in situations where non-conformities are rare. It is suitable for processes where there is a high occurrence of zero non-conformities, though occasional non-conformities are still possible. Loganathan and Shalini [5, 6] pioneered the determination of ZIP SSPs. Later, Uma and Ramya [17], Rao and Aslam [13], and Fu-Kwun and Sharew [3] discussed the construction of sampling plans in different perspectives. The Bayesian approach to developing ZIP SSPs has been explored by Suresh and Latha [15], Vijayaraghavan et «/.,[19], Shalini et al., [11], Palanisamy and Latha [7, 8] and Kaviyarasu and Sivakumar [4].
The designing of ZIP DSPs has been addressed by Shalini and Sheik [12], Pramote and Wimonmas [9], Wimonmas and Pramote [20]. The integration of Bayesian principles into the designing of DSPs have been discussed by Vijayaraghavan and Sakthivel [18], Balamurali et al.,[l], and Suresh and Usha [16].
According to the literature, there has been no research conducted on developing GZIP DSPs. This article focuses on the determination of GZIP DSPs. The OC function of the GZIP DSP is derived in Section 2. Designing GZIP DSPs is discussed in Section 3. Numerical examples and the significance of GZIP DSPs over the conventional ZIP DSPs are given in Section 4. Results are summarized in the concluding section.
DSPs offer more flexibility than SSPs by reducing the risk of making premature decisions. This approach is widely used in industries where cost and time efficiency are critical, providing a balance between minimizing inspection efforts and ensuring product quality.
A DSP is structured around five specific parameters: ni, rn, ci, C2 and cs, where ci < C2 and C2 < C3 (the third acceptance number). When C2 is taken in equal to C3 (i.e., C2 = cs), the DSP is described through its parameters ni, n2, ciand C2, which represent the sizes of the first and second samples and the first and second acceptance numbers, respectively (Duncan [2] and Stephens [14]).
Upon inspecting all items in the sample, the number of nonconformities (di) is established. If di < ci, the lot is approved; if di > C2, it is declined. When ci < di < C2, the initial sample fails, a second sample of size m is taken and the nonconformities (jdi) are counted. The cumulative count, D = di + d2, is compared to C2\ the lot is approved if D < C2 and declined if D > C2. This two-stage process enhances the reliability of quality assessment, allowing for more effective decision-making regarding lot approval or rejection based on observed nonconformities (Schilling and Neubauer
The effectiveness of a sampling plan can be evaluated through its OC function. In various industrial environments, careful monitoring of production processes often results in the frequent occurrence of zero non-conformities. In such scenarios, the ZIP distribution is the fitting probability distribution for nonconformities. The probability mass function (pmf) of the ZIP distribution is defined as follows

In this model, p and A are parameters, where p (0 < p < 1) denotes the mixing proportion, which is assumed to be known.
When the variation in lot quality is significant from lot-to-lot, it indicates an unstable production process. In such cases, the process parameter A is assumed to vary randomly between lots and follows Gamma (a, m) distribution. This gamma distribution is the natural conjugate prior to A= np in the Poisson component of the ZIP distribution.
Shalini et al. [11] derived the probability distribution of d under the conditions of a ZIP distribution and a gamma prior distribution for A, where the shape parameter of the gamma distribution is m.

The OC function of the GZIP DSP can be described as:
Pa(p) = ^ c1\n1) +Y,cd2i=Ci+1f(d1\n1p,p,m)F(d2 < c3 - d1\n2) (3)
As proposed by Vijayaraghavan and Sakthivel [18], the prior knowledge about the production

III. Designing GZIP DSPs
GZIP DSPs are designed by determining the optimum parameters ni, ni, ciand ci based on the prescribed points (pi, 1-a) and (pi, ft) on the OC curve so that the determined GZIP DSPs provide adequate protection to both producer and consumer.
The plan must satisfy the following requirements:
(i) Pa (pi) > 1- a
(ii) Pa (pi) < ft
The values of the plan parameters ni, ni,ci and ci can be derived for each set of p, m, pi, a, pi and |3 by applying the unity value approach. The values npi and npi satisfying respectively equations (i) and (ii) are termed as unity values (Schilling and Neubauer [10]). The plan parameters can be arranged in tables for different combinations of (pi, a, pi, ft). The use of an operating ratio R =
reduces the number of tables.
The plan parameters are determined for specific sets of values of p, m, pi, a, pi and ft under the condition of GZIP distribution. The unity values are computed for various values combinations of (p, m, c, Pa (p)) by solving the OC function of GZIP DSPs for each combination of ci and ci with ni= ni = n. The values taken for m are 5 and 10 and for Pa (p) are 0.99, 0.90, 0.50, 0.20 and 0.10. The value considered for ci and ci in these combinations are 1(1)9 and 2(1)10 respectively. The values taken for p are 0.03 and 0.07 and are given in Table 1. The operating ratio values calculated corresponding to (a = 0.05, ft = 0.10), (a = 0.10, ft = 0.20), p = 0.03 and 0.07, m = 5 and 10, ci = 1(1)9 and ci = 2(1)10 are listed in Table 2.
For specified strength (pi, a, pi, ft) and values of p and m these tables can be used to determine the plan parameters by implementing the following procedure:
First, we compute the operating ratio R = — .Next select the unity value npi and the acceptance
numbers (ci, ci) from Table 2 corresponding to the value of p, m, a, ft associated with an operating ratio closest to R. Then, determine the unity values npi from Table 1 and calculate the sample size n
as —-. Thus, the acceptance numbers and the sample size determined together with <p and m are the parameters of the desired plan.

IV. Numerical Examples
This section outlines the process for choosing GZIP DSPs for a defined strength, along with numerical examples.
When solving the OC function of the GZIP DSPs conditions, the unity values for various combinations of (p, m, c, Pa(p)) are calculated by considering each combination of ci and C2 with the condition ni = n2 = n. Then, the plan parameters for specific values of p, m, pi, a, p2 and $ are determined GZIP DSPs.
I. Example 1
Suppose that p = 0.07, m = 10, and the strength of the plan is specified as pi = 0.01, a = 0.05, p2 = 0.06, $ = 0.10, the operating ratio R corresponding to these specifications is computed as 6. The acceptance number can be determined from Table 2 as ci = 5 and C2 =6 with an R value of 5.9672, which is close to 6. The unity values corresponding to the p, m, pi, a, p2and $ parameters are obtained from Table 1 as npi = 2.5708.
Since n = = 2 5708 « 257. Based on these calculations, the optimum DSP is ni = 257, ci = 5, p1 0.01 r
n2 = 257 and c2 = 6.
II. Example 2
Assuming p = 0.03, m = 10, and the plan's strength is set at pi = 0.01, a = 0.05, p2 = 0.06, $ = 0.10, the operating ratio R can be calculated as 6. The acceptance number can be determined from Table 2 as ci = 1 and c2 = 3 with an R value of 5.8771, which is close to 6. Consequently, the unity values for p, m, pi, a, p2and $ from Table 1 are npi = 0.9714.
Since, n = = 0 9714 «97. the optimal GZIP DSPs for the specified specifications is ni = 97,
pt 0.01 r r r
ci =1, n2 = 97, c2 =3,p = 0.03 and m = 10.
The ZIP DSP for the specified strength is ni = 102, ci = 1, rn = 102, c2 =3,p = 0.03.
This indicates that GZIP DSP requires smaller sample compared to ZIP DSP. III. Significance of GZIP DSPs over non-Bayesian ZIP DSPs.
The producer's risk for the ZIP DSP is 4.63% when the lot fraction non-conforming is p = 0.009. On the other hand, the producer's risk for the GZIP DSPs for the given values of m = 5 and 10 are 3.32% and 3.56%, respectively. When the lot fraction non-conforming is p = 0.059, the consumer's risk for the ZIP DSP is 10.35%. In contrast, the consumer's risk for the GZIP DSPs for the specified values of m = 5 and 10 is 10.36% and 9.94%, respectively. For the ZIP DSP, the combined producer and consumer risk is 14.98%. On the other hand, the GZIP DSP has a total risk for m = 5 and 10 are 13.68% and 13.50% respectively.

V. Conclusion
The fundamental assumption in the theory of sampling inspection procedures by attributes is that the fraction of nonconforming items in a lot remains constant. However, in real-world scenarios, lots produced from a process often exhibit quality variations due to random fluctuations, leading to a random variation in the fraction of nonconforming units across lots. In such situations, Bayesian acceptance sampling plans (BASP), which incorporate prior information about process variability when making decisions on submitted lots, can offer an advantage over conventional plans. In this paper, Bayesian double sampling plans by attributes are determined for the two specified points on the OC curve based on gamma-ZIP distribution. The GZIP DSPs requires fewer sample units for inspection compared to non-Bayesian ZIP DSPs. As a result, GZIP DSPs effectively lower both producer's and consumer's risks, offering better protection for both parties by minimizing the chances of rejecting good-quality lots and accepting poor-quality ones. By implementing GZIP DSPs, optimal sample sizes and acceptance numbers are achieved, reducing overall risk and delivering benefits such as enhanced customer satisfaction, increased productivity, and sustained market competitiveness.
