A further note on sampling to locate rare defectives with strong prior evidence
Andrew P. Grieve · Biometrika · 1994
In a recent paper on inference about the number of defectives in a finite population, Wright (1992) provides a Bayesian view on the sample size required to give high assurance that the probability of unobserved defectives is low. We reconsider Wright's approach and derive alternative formulae appropriate when there is considerable, but not infinite, prior information.
