Connection Between Uniformity and Aberration in Regular Fractions of Two-level Factorials
نویسندگان
چکیده
We show a link between two apparently unrelated areas, namely uniformity and minimum aberration, both of which have been of substantial recent interest. Speciically, with reference to regular fractions of two-level factorials, we derive an expression for the centered L 2-discrepancy measure for uniformity in terms of the wordlength pattern. This result indicates, in particular, an excellent behavior of minimum aberration designs with regard to uniformity and provides further justiication for the popular criterion of minimum aberration.

Some Connections between Uniformity, Orthogonality and Aberration in Regular Fractional Factorial Designs
In this paper we create the connection of wrap-around-discrepancy and aberration of regular fractional factorial designs with two and three levels. For any level we give the connection of uniformity and orthogonality only for complete design.
متن کاملIndicator Function and its Application in Two - level
State University of New York at Stony Brook 2A two-level factorial design can be uniquely represented by a polynomial indicator function. Therefore, properties of factorial designs can be studied through their indicator functions. This paper shows that indicator function is an effective tool in studying two-level factorial designs. Indicator function is used to generalize aberration criterion o...
متن کاملFractional Factorial Split-Plot Designs with Minimum Aberration and Maximum Estimation Capacity
Considering general prime or prime powered factorials, we give a nite projective geometric formulation for regular fractional factorial split-plot designs. This provides a uniied framework for such designs and facilitates their systematic study under the criteria of minimum aberration and minimum secondary aberration; the latter criterion is introduced to achieve ner discrimination. We investig...
متن کاملAn algorithmic approach to finding factorial designs with generalized minimum aberration
Factorial designs are arguably the most widely used designs in scientific investigations. Generalized minimum aberration (GMA) and uniformity are two important criteria for evaluating both regular and non-regular designs. The generation of GMA designs is a non-trivial problem due to the sequential optimization nature of the criterion. Based on an analytical expression between the generalized wo...
متن کاملGeneralized Minimum Aberration for Asymmetrical Fractional Factorial Designs
By studying treatment contrasts and ANOVA models, we propose a generalized minimum aberration criterion for comparing asymmetrical fractional factorial designs. The criterion is independent of the choice of treatment contrasts and thus model-free. It works for symmetrical and asymmetrical designs, regular and nonregular designs. In particular, it reduces to the minimum aberration criterion for ...
