International Journal of Fuzzy Systems Aims and scope Submit manuscript

Abstract

In this study, novel neutrosophic sampling plans for multiple manufacturing lines using traditional and exponentially weighted moving average for process capability index are designed. The neutrosophic optimization solution is used to determine the parameters of these plans. The neutrosophic operating function is given and used to determine the neutrosophic plan parameters at some specified producer’s risk and consumer’s risk. The results are explained with the help of industrial data.
