  • A Bayesian model for the determination of optimal sampling intervals

    Creator:
    Paradis, Garry Lynn
    Abstract:
    There are a nearly unlimited number of situations in which the status of time-varying processes must be updated. The monitoring of these processes usually occurs at periodic intervals. Whether the monitoring is performed by man or machine, a decision must be made regarding the frequency of these activities, that is,...

  • Automatic sampling for seed analysis

    Creator:
    Knudson, Larry Andrew
    Abstract:
    Experiments were designed to reveal the accuracy and precision of four types of automatic sampler prototypes after initial testing indicated that the single tube vibrator sampler was not drawing a complete cross section of the seed flow in a vertical column. These experiments compared the automatic samplers with the trier...

  • A mixed variables-attributes double sampling plan

    Creator:
    Harmer, Dale Leroy
    Abstract:
    This thesis presents a table of dependent, mixed variables and attributes double sampling plans, where the standard deviation of the quality characteristic is assumed to be known, and the acceptance number is zero for the attributes portion of the plans. The table gives sampling plans for ten ranges of lot...

  • A Bayesian approach to nonresponse in sample surveys

    Creator:
    Smouse, Evan Paul
    Abstract:
    A common problem in postal surveys of human populations arises when some of the sampled people fail to respond to the questionnaire. The problem is that the answers provided by the respondents may not be typical of the answers the nonrespondents would provide if these had been solicited more successfully....

  • Predicting unit variate values in a finite population

    Creator:
    Carter, Nancy Jean
    Abstract:
    The problem of predicting variate values for all individual units in a finite population based on a sample of some of the units is Investigated. Two prediction problems are considered: the one-stage prediction problem where the unit variate values are directly observable for each sample unit, and the two-stage prediction...

  • Optimal inspection policies for a partially observable process with hazardous inspections

    Creator:
    Chou, Chung-kuang
    Abstract:
    An inspection model is considered in which inspections are hazardous to the device being monitored. The model is formulated as a partially observable Markov decision process. Previous research has determined the optimal ongoing inspection policies for a previously inspected device. In this thesis, the optimal inspection initiation policies are investigated...

  • Sampling enhanced measurement systems

    Creator:
    Agoston, Agoston
    Abstract:
    The purpose of the thesis is to synthesize the major results of a continuous research effort directed toward new applications of high speed sampling in general and Electrooptic Sampling in particular. Equivalent time sampling of repetitive high speed signals continues to provide significant performance enhancements for present and future generations...

  • Determination of optimum raw product sampling procedures with special reference to green beans for processing

    Creator:
    Ellis, Bruce Byron
    Abstract:
    Most raw product received at processing plants in Oregon is sampled to determine quality characteristics as a basis of grower payment. Raw product sampling procedures must provide the processor with a means of sampling which will be sufficiently precise to satisfy himself as well, as his growers, and thus avoid...

  • On the reconstruction of bandlimited signals from sampled values

    Creator:
    Dastrange, Nassar
    Abstract:
    The sampling theorem states that any frequency bandlimited signal can be exactly reconstructed from its sampled values. Different forms of this theorem have been reviewed since 1841 up to the present time. Kramer's generalized sampling theorem has been extended to two dimensions, and the form for higher dimensions can be...
