Abstract
For consumer protection, many governments perform random inspections on goods sold by weight or volume to ensure consistency between actual and labeled net contents. To pass inspection, random samples must jointly comply with restrictions placed on the individual sampled items and on the sample average. In this article, we consider the current United States National Institute of Standards and Technology joint acceptance criteria. Motivated by a problem from a real manufacturing process, we provide an approximation for the probability of sample acceptance that is applicable for processes with one or more known sources of variation via a random effects model. This approach also allows the assessment of the sampling scheme of the items. We use examples and simulations to assess the quality and accuracy of the approximation and illustrate how the methodology can be used to fine-tune process parameters for a prespecified probability of sample acceptance. Simulations are also used for estimating variance components.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
