Abstract
Capture-recapture models predict the number of remaining defects in an inspected document as a decision criterion about reinspection. Traditional inspections and estimate, based on actual inspections' data, are compared with capture-recapture models accuracies and look at the impact of the number of inspectors on these accuracies. The model's accuracies are strongly affected by the number of inspectors and should consider this factor before using capture-recapture models. When the number of inspectors is below 4, no model is sufficiently accurate and underestimation is substantial.
