Known series of balanced incomplete block designs with nested rows and columns are used to find orthogonal sets of these designs, producing main effects plans in nested rows and columns. Two infinite series are so constructed and shown to be universally optimum for the analysis with recovery of row and column information, a benefit produced by the additional higher strata orthogonality they enjoy. One of these series achieves orthogonality with just v − 1 replicates of v treatments, fewer than required by Latin squares.  相似文献

A nest with parameters (r,k,λ)→(r′,k′,λ′) is a BIBD on (b,v,r,k,λ) where each block has a distinguished sublock of cardinality k, the sublocks forming a (b,v,r,k,λ)-design.These designs are ‘nested’ in the sense of W.T. Federer (1972), who recommended the use of these designs for the sequential addition of periods in marketing experiments in order to retain Youden design properties as rows are added. Note that for a Youden design, the b columns and v treatments are in an SBIBD arrangement with parameters v=b, k=r, and λ.  相似文献

Consider change-over designs for the comparison of v treatments. Each application has a direct effect and up to n?1 residual and/or interaction effects. An array is defined to be a serial array if: (1) all treatments occur equally often in each row and (2) reading down columns, all possible permutations of n consecutive treatments occur equally often in the array. A method of constructing (λv+n?1) Xvn ?1, λ integral, serial arrays is given. Use of these arrays as change-over designs is discussed with emphasis on the inclusion of interaction effects.  相似文献

A new general class of m-class cyclic association scheme is defined for v treatments, where v is a composite number. A simple method of construction of PBIB designs having this association scheme using more than one initial block and some methods using only one initial block are proposed. A complete analysis of this type of PBIB designs is given. Also given is a list of 39 useful PBIB designs of this type having v≤15 and r≤10 and having only three associate classes together with their efficiency factors for all types of comparisons and over all efficiency factors.  相似文献

This paper presents further results on a class of designs called equineighboured designs, ED. These designs are intended for field and related experiments, especially whenever there is evidence that observations in the same block are correlated. An ED has the property that every unordered pair of treatments occurs as nearest neighbours equally frequently at each level. Ipinyomi (1986) has defined and shown that ED are balanced designs when neighbouring observations are correlated. He has also presented ED as a continuation of the development of optimal block designs. An ED would often require many times the number of experimental materials needed for the construction of an ordinary balanced incomplete block, BIB, design for the same number of treatments and block sizes. Thus for a relatively large number of treatments and block sizes the required minimum number of blocks may be excessively large for practical use of ED. In this paper we shall define and examine partially equineighboured designs with n concurrences, PED (n), as alternatives where ED are practically unachievable. Particular attention will be given to designs with smaller numbers of blocks and for which only as little balance as possible may be lost.  相似文献

For given positive integers v, b, and k (all of them ≥2) a block design is a k × b array of the variety labels 1,…,v with blocks as columns. For the usual one-way heterogeneity model in standard form the problem is studied of finding a D-optimal block design for estimating the variety contrasts, when no balanced block design (BBD) exists. The paper presents solutions to this problem for v≤6. The results on D-optimality are derived from a graph-theoretic context. Block designs can be considered as multigraphs, and a block design is D-optimal iff its multigraph has greatest complexity (=number of spanning trees).  相似文献

The construction of a balanced incomplete block design (BIBD) is formulated in terms of combinatorial optimization by defining a cost function that reaches its lower bound on all and only those configurations corresponding to a BIBD. This cost function is a linear combination of distribution measures for each of the properties of a block design (number of plots, uniformity of rows, uniformity of columns, and balance). The approach generalizes naturally to a super-class BIBDs, which we call maximally balanced maximally uniform designs (MBMUDs), that allow two consecutive values for their design parameters [r,r+1;k,k+1;λ,λ+1]. In terms of combinatorial balance, MBMUDs are the closest possible approximation to BIBDs for all experimental settings where no set of admissible parameters exists. Thus, other design classes previously proposed with the same approximation aim—such as RDGs, SRDGs and NBIBDs of type I—can be viewed as particular cases of MBMUDs. Interestingly, experimental results show that the proposed combinatorial cost function has a monotonic relation with A- and D-statistical optimality in the space of designs with uniform rows and columns, while its computational cost is much lower.  相似文献

Repeated measurement designs are widely used in medicine, pharmacology, animal sciences and psychology. These designs balance out the residual effects. The situations where balanced repeated measurements designs require a large number of the subjects, partially-balanced repeated measurements designs should be used. In this paper some infinite series are developed which provide circular partially-balanced repeated measurement designs for p (periods) even. Catalogues of circular partially-balanced repeated measurement designs are also presented for v (treatments) ≤ 100 with p = 5, 7 & 9.  相似文献

In this paper we study the class of augmented balanced incomplete block designs, which are used for comparing a control treatment with a set of test treatments. Under the A- criterion we establish a condition that enables us to determine the most efficient augmented design and we suggest some methods to compute a lower bound for the efficiency of these designs. For 3≤k≤10, vk, we list the parameters of the most efficient designs with a lower bound for their efficiency or, if known, mention their optimality.  相似文献

This paper introduces a new class of designs called equi-neighboured designs. An equineighboured design has the property that every unordered pair of treatments occurs as nearest neighbours equally frequently at every level. These designs are defined in Section 4 and shown to be balanced when neighbouring observations are correlated. Some equineighboured designs are constructed using a complete set of orthogonal Latin squares. Cyclic equineighboured designs are also defined.  相似文献

The class of balanced treatment incomplete block designs is generalized to allow for comparison of v1 test treatments and v2 control treatments. The generalized class is equivalent to the class of balanced bipartite block designs considered by Jaggi, Gupta, and Parsad. Some results on design construction and A-optimality are given for small values of v1 and v2. Algorithms are developed for computing simultaneous confidence bounds for all test treatment versus control contrasts.  相似文献

Abstract

Balanced repeated measurements designs (RMDs) balance out the residual effects. Williams Latin square designs work as minimal combinatorial balanced as well as variance balanced for RMDs for p (period sizes) = v (number of treatments). If minimal balanced RMDs cannot be constructed for the situations where p must be less than v then weakly balanced RMDs should be preferred. In this article, some generators are developed to generate circular weakly balanced RMDs in periods of two different sizes. To obtain the proposed designs, some construction procedures are also described for some of the cases where we could not develop generators.  相似文献

The m-associate triangular association scheme has been discussed, and several series of partially balanced incomplete block (PBIB) designs with m-associate triangular association scheme have been obtained in Section 1. In Section 2, an m-associate triangular-group divisible association scheme (TqGDm, 1<q<m) has been introduced and several series of PBIB designs with m-associate triangular group divisible association scheme, from m-associate triangular PBIB designs have been constructed. Some numerical values to the three associate triangular designs, and three associate triangular group divisible designs in the range b, v≦100; r, k≦10, with their average efficiencies are given, respectively, in Tables I and II, in Section 3, where as usual v denotes the number of treatments, b the number of blocks, r the number of replications of each treatment, and k the block size.  相似文献

Two methods to select columns for assigning factors to work on supersaturated designs are proposed. The focus of interest is the degree of non-orthogonality between the selected columns. One method is the exhaustive enumeration of selections of p columns from all k columns to find the exact optimality, while the other is intended to find an approximate solution by applying techniques used in the corresponding analysis, aiming for ease of use as well as a reduction in the large computing time required for large k with the first method. Numerical illustrations for several typical design matrices reveal that the resulting “approximately” optimal assignments of factors to their columns are exactly optimal for any p. Ordering the columns in E(s2)-optimal designs results in promising new findings including a large number of E(s2)-optimal designs.  相似文献

This paper discusses resolvable row-column designs for v treatments arranged in b blocks each comprising pq units further grouped into p rows and q columns. A resolvable row-column design has v =pqs treatments set out in r groups of s blocks. Each rectangular block has p rows and q columns.  相似文献

This article proposes an algorithm to construct efficient balanced multi-level k-circulant supersaturated designs with m factors and n runs. The algorithm generates efficient balanced multi-level k-circulant supersaturated designs very fast. Using the proposed algorithm many balanced multi-level supersaturated designs are constructed and cataloged. A list of many optimal and near optimal, multi-level supersaturated designs is also provided for m ≤ 60 and number of levels (q) ≤10. The algorithm can be used to generate two-level k-circulant supersaturated designs also and some large optimal two-level supersaturated designs are presented. An upper bound to the number of factors in a balanced multi-level supersaturated design such that no two columns are fully aliased is also provided.  相似文献

In this paper we consider experimental situations in which v treatments are to be applied to experimental units arranged in b blocks of size k = 3 and where there may be unknown or uncontrollable linear trends (possibly different) within blocks. Methods are given here for determining and constructing E-optimal designs for such situations.  相似文献

A series of weakly resolvable search designs for the pn factorial experiment is given for which the mean and all main effects are estimable in the presence of any number of two-factor interactions and for which any combination of three or fewer pairs of factors that interact may be detected. The designs have N = p(p–1)n+p runs except in one case where additional runs are required for detection and one case where (p?1)2 additional runs are needed to estimate all (p–1)2 degrees of freedom for each pair of detected interactions. The detection procedure is simple enough that computations can be carried out with hand calculations.  相似文献

Neighbor balance designs were first introduced by Rees (1967) in circular blocks for the use in serological research. Subsequently several researchers have defined the neighbor designs in different ways. In this paper, neighbor balance circular designs for (kv) block size are constructed for even number of treatments i.e. v=2n. No such series of designs is known in literature. Two theorems are developed for circular designs. Theorem 1 gives the non-binary circular blocks, whereas Theorem 2 generates binary circular blocks when n≤4 and non-binary blocks for n>4. In suggested designs no treatment is ever a neighbor of itself. Blocks are constructed in such a way that each treatment is a right and left neighbor of every other treatment for a fixed number of times say λ. Sizes of initial circular blocks are not same. One main guiding principle for such designs is to ensure economy in material use.  相似文献
