Abstract
Mechanical sorters with a nonnegligible probability of misclassification need to be calibrated. This article provides formulas for the statistical precision of class frequency estimates for lots (populations) of items, considering contributions of error from the calibration, from sampling the population, and from random misclassifications in the sorting of the sample.Keywords
