Marginally restricted sequential D-optimal designs
In many experiments, not all explanatory variables can be controlled. When the units arise sequentially, different approaches may be used. The authors study a natural sequential procedure for “marginally restricted” D-optimal designs. They assume that one set of explanatory variables (x1) is observed sequentially, and that the experimenter responds by choosing an appropriate value of the explan...
متن کاملRobustness properties of minimally-supported Bayesian D-optimal designs for heteroscedastic models
Bayesian D-optimal designs supported on a xed number of points were found by Dette and Wong (1998) for estimating parameters in a polynomial model when the error variance depends exponentially on the explanatory variable. This work provides optimal designs under a broader class of error variance structures and investigates the robustness properties of these designs to model and prior distributi...
متن کاملBayesian D{optimal Designs for the Exponential Growth Model
Bayesian optimal designs for nonlinear regression models are of some interest and importance in the statistical literature. Numerical methods for their construction are well-established, but very few analytical studies have been reported. In this paper, we consider an exponential growth model used extensively in the modelling of simple organisms, and examine the explicit form of the Bayesian D{...
متن کاملOn a Multiplicative Algorithm for Computing Bayesian D-optimal Designs
We use the minorization-maximization principle (Lange, Hunter and Yang 2000) to establish the monotonicity of a multiplicative algorithm for computing Bayesian D-optimal designs. This proves a conjecture of Dette, Pepelyshev and Zhigljavsky (2008). We also study a nearest neighbor exchange strategy and show that it can dramatically improve the speed of the multiplicative algorithm.
متن کاملModel-sensitive sequential optimal designs
The increasing number of experimenters using computer-generated experimental designs creates an increasing need to have design procedures that are less sensitive to model misspecification. To address this problem, the notion of empirical models that have both important and potential terms is used. A two-stage design strategy for planning experiments in the face of model uncertainty is proposed....
