We present a generalisation of the standard well known and widely used Metropolis-Hastings algorithm which, unlike the Metropolis-Hastings sampler, can mix well over a target distribution which has separated and possibly narrow modes. The idea arose via a consideration of a space augmented slice sampler where the uniform space required to be sampled for the slice sampler, say I , is augmented w...

this article studies the effects of dividing the distribution of petrol on changing the methods of city transportation in mashhad, six months after the plan. the sampling method used in this research is the classed sampling method and there were 670 participants, all from the city of mashhad. the results of the study show that the rate of satisfaction from the plan, is very low; just 20%. the y...

In this paper, we propose a Double Thompson Sampling (D-TS) algorithm for dueling bandit problems. As its name suggests, D-TS selects both the first and the second candidates according to Thompson Sampling. Specifically, D-TS maintains a posterior distribution for the preference matrix, and chooses the pair of arms for comparison according to two sets of samples independently drawn from the pos...

This research article presents, a blended two-sided chain inspection plan with process potential measure. The Probability of acceptance and related measures are shown. Tables prepared to find the parameters plan. In this variable sample size is obtained by using normal distribution in attribute inspection, sampling which yields small used designed really production industries study product resp...

Double sampling (DS) s charts are designed to allow quick detection of a small shift in process standard deviations and to provide a quick response in an agile manufacturing environment. However, current developed DS s charts assume that the sample standard deviations follow a normal distribution. Although valid for relatively large sample sizes, this assumption has limited the application of D...

Acceptance sampling is used to decide either the whole lot will be accepted or rejected, based on inspection of randomly sampled items from same lot. As an alternative traditional plans, it possible use Bayesian approaches using previous knowledge process variation. This study presents a two-sided group chain plan (BTSGChSP) by various combinations design parameters. In BTSGChSP, preceding as w...
