Supersaturated designs are a large class of factorial designs which can be used for screening out the important factors from a large set of potentially active variables. The huge advantage of these designs is that they reduce the experimental cost drastically, but their critical disadvantage is the confounding involved in the statistical analysis. In this article, we propose a method for analyzing data using several types of supersaturated designs. Modifications of widely used information criteria are given and applied to the variable selection procedure for the identification of the active factors. The effectiveness of the proposed method is depicted via simulated experiments and comparisons.  相似文献

In this paper, we propose the application of group screening methods for analyzing data using E(fNOD)-optimal mixed-level supersaturated designs possessing the equal occurrence property. Supersaturated designs are a large class of factorial designs which can be used for screening out the important factors from a large set of potentially active variables. The huge advantage of these designs is that they reduce the experimental cost drastically, but their critical disadvantage is the high degree of confounding among factorial effects. Based on the idea of the group screening methods, the f factors are sub-divided into g “group-factors”. The “group-factors” are then studied using the penalized likelihood statistical analysis methods at a factorial design with orthogonal or near-orthogonal columns. All factors in groups found to have a large effect are then studied in a second stage of experiments. A comparison of the Type I and Type II error rates of various estimation methods via simulation experiments is performed. The results are presented in tables and discussion follows.  相似文献

Industrial experiments are frequently performed sequentially using two-level fractional factorial designs. In this context, a common strategy for the design of follow-up experiments is to switch the signs in one column. It is well known that this strategy, when applied to two-level fractional factorial resolution III designs, will clear the main effect, for which the switch was performed, from any confounding with any other two-factor interactions and will also clear all the two-factor interactions between that factor and the other main effects from any confounding with other two-factor interactions. In this article, we extend this result and show that this strategy applies to any orthogonal two-level resolution III design and therefore specifically to any two-level Plackett- Burman design .  相似文献

Combinatorial extension and composition methods have been extensively used in the construction of block designs. One of the composition methods, namely the direct product or Kronecker product method was utilized by Chakravarti [1956] to produce certain types of fractional factorial designs. The present paper shows how the direct sum operation can be utilized in obtaining from initial fractional factorial designs for two separate symmetrical factorials a fractional factorial design for the corresponding asymmetrical factorial. Specifically, we provide some results which are useful in the construction of non-singular fractional factorial designs via the direct sum composition method. In addition a modified direct sum method is discussed and the consequences of imposing orthogonality are explored.  相似文献

Since the development of methods for the analysis of experiments with dependent data, see for example Gleeson and Cullis (1987), the design of such experiments has been an area of active research. We investigate the design of factorial experiments, complete and fractional, for various dependency structures. An algorithm for generating optimal or near optimal designs is presented and shown to be useful across a wide range of dependency structures.  相似文献

In this paper the use of Kronecker designs for factorial experiments is considered. The two-factor Kronecker design is considered in some detail and the efficiency factors of the main effects and interaction in such a design are derived. It is shown that the efficiency factor of the interaction is at least as large as the product of the efficiency factors of the two main effects and when both the component designs are totally balanced then its efficiency factor will be higher than the efficiency factor of either of the two main effects. If the component designs are nearly balanced then its efficiency factor will be approximately at least as large as the efficiency factor of either of the two main effects. It is argued that these designs are particularly useful for factorial experiments.Extensions to the multi-factor design are given and it is proved that the two-factor Kronecker design will be connected if the component designs are connected.  相似文献

This paper presents the sinplesr procedure that uses wodular aryithmetic for constructing confounded designs for mixed factorial experiments. The present procedure and the classical one for confounding in symmetrical factorial experiments are both at the same mathema.tical level. The present procedure is written for

practitioners and is lllustrared with several examples.  相似文献

Partially Efficiency-Balanced (PEB) designs were introduced by Puri and Nigam $year:1977. These designs may be particularly useful for bio-assays and factorial experiments and have a very simple analysis. In the present paper, we give several new systematic procedures of constructing PEB designs with varying replications. A number of practical series of PEB designs are presented. We shall also pre- sent the methods of analysing these designs produced here.  相似文献

It is known that n-cyclic designs provide a flexible class of designs suitable for setting out factorial experiments. In this paper we show that many of these designs are resolvable. Further, an extensive class of practically useful designs can be derived from them by deleting replicates. The properties of the designs compare favourably with those obtained by the algorithm of Williams and John (1996) (Appl. Statist. 45, 39–46).  相似文献

Rank tests are known to be robust to outliers and violation of distributional assumptions. Two major issues besetting microarray data are violation of the normality assumption and contamination by outliers. In this article, we formulate the normal theory simultaneous tests and their aligned rank transformation (ART) analog for detecting differentially expressed genes. These tests are based on the least-squares estimates of the effects when data follow a linear model. Application of the two methods are then demonstrated on a real data set. To evaluate the performance of the aligned rank transform method with the corresponding normal theory method, data were simulated according to the characteristics of a real gene expression data. These simulated data are then used to compare the two methods with respect to their sensitivity to the distributional assumption and to outliers for controlling the family-wise Type I error rate, power, and false discovery rate. It is demonstrated that the ART generally possesses the robustness of validity property even for microarray data with small number of replications. Although these methods can be applied to more general designs, in this article the simulation study is carried out for a dye-swap design since this design is broadly used in cDNA microarray experiments.  相似文献

The present article establishes equivalence between extended group divisible (EGD) designs and designs for crop sequence experiments. This equivalence has encouraged the agricultural experimenters to use EGD designs for their experimentation. Some real life applications of EGD designs have been given. It has also been shown that several existing association schemes are special cases of EGD association scheme. Some methods of construction of EGD designs are also given. A catalogue of EGD designs obtainable through methods of construction along with efficiency factors of various factorial effects is also presented. In some crop sequence experiments that are conducted to develop suitable integrated nutrient supply system of a crop sequence, the treatments do not comprise of a complete factorial structure. The experimenter is interested in estimating the residual and direct effect of the treatments along with their cumulative effects. For such experimental settings block designs with two sets of treatments applied in succession are the appropriate designs. The correspondence established between row–column designs and block designs for two stage experiments by Parsad et al. [2003. Structurally incomplete row–column designs. Comm. Statist. Theory Methods 32(1), 239–261] has been exploited in obtaining designs for such experimental situations. Some open problems related to designing of crop sequence experiments are also given.  相似文献

Recently, many researchers have devoted themselves to the investigation on the number of replicates needed for experiments in blocks of size two. In practice, experiments in blocks of size four might be more useful than those in blocks of size two. To estimate the main effects and two-factor interactions from a two-level factorial experiment in blocks, we might need many replicates. This article investigates designs with the least number of replicates for factorial experiments in blocks of size four. The methods to obtain such designs are presented.  相似文献

Block designs to which have been added a number of singly-replicated treatments, known as secondary treatments, are particularly useful for experiments where only small amounts of material are available for some treatments, for example new plant varieties. The designs are of particular use in the microarray situation. Such designs are known as 'augmented designs'. This paper obtains the properties of these designs and shows that, with an equal number of secondary treatments in each block, the A-optimal design is obtained by using the A-optimal design for the original block design. It develops formulae for the variance of treatment comparisons, for both the primary and the secondary treatments. A number of examples are used to illustrate the results.  相似文献

It is known by Zhang and Park (J. Statist. Plann. Inference 91 (2000) 107) that there are no minimum aberration (MA) designs with respect to both treatments and blocks for blocked regular mixed-level factorial designs. So it should be compromised between the block wordlength pattern and treatment wordlength pattern. Two methods are considered in this article. The first is MA blocking scheme of an MA design. The other is to combine the components of the two wordlength pattern vectors into one combined wordlength pattern according to the modified hierarchical assumptions and an appropriate ordering of the numbers of alias or confounding relations. The relationship between the two types of optimal blocked designs is investigated. A complete catalogue of optimal blocked regular mixed factorial designs of the above two types with 16 or 32 runs is given.  相似文献

Supersaturated design is one type of fractional factorial design where the number of columns is greater than the number of rows. This type of design would be useful when costs of experiments are expensive and the number of factors is large, and there is a limitation on the number of runs. This paper presents some theorems on three-level supersaturated design and their application to construction. The construction methods proposed in this paper can be regarded as an extension of the methods developed for two-level supersaturated designs.  相似文献

ABSTRACT

Split-plot designs have been utilized in factorial experiments with some factors applied to larger units and others to smaller units. Such designs with low aberration are preferred when the experimental size and the number of factors considered in both whole plot and subplot are determined. The minimum aberration split-plot designs can be obtained using either computer algorithms or the exhausted search. In this article, we propose a simple, easy-to-operate approach by using two ordered sequences of columns from two orthogonal arrays in obtaining minimum aberration split-plot designs for experiments of sizes 16 and 32.  相似文献
