For costly and/or destructive inspections for a complex population, the sum of observations, the test statistic in common use, is shown to be inefficient in risk control. For the complex population consisting of Bernoulli distributions, the method of combined inspection is proposed in this paper. Evaluation based on examples and simulation results is conducted according to the method of limited classification. It is concluded that the new method is efficient and applicable.
