Abstract
Summary and Conclusions:
- Capture-recapture models estimate remaining defects based on inspection-detected defects.
- CR models enhance the reinspection decision
- This can supplement existing reinspection decision criteria or be used standalone for processes with no existing defined reinspection criteria.
- Decisions based on CR models can be augmented through the use of additional inspection variables.
- CR-based decision models can be institutionalized as part of the inspection process.
- Models are a relatively low-cost analysis method when used with an existing inspection data infrastructure.
